Rockets vs Timberwolves Prediction, Picks and NBA Prop Bets for Feb 6: Ride Rockets -1.5, Edwards Under 29.5 Points

The Rockets and Timberwolves are stumbling into this one. Houston has dropped four of its last five, while Minnesota hasn’t looked much better. The last time they met, Minnesota squeaked by with a one-point win, but my NBA betting tips say Houston looks likely to flip the script.

You know the drill – let’s break down these Rockets vs Timberwolves odds and see why the Rockets are due for a win.

Rockets vs Timberwolves Prediction

Both teams have stacked up losses, but their last two matchups were tight, decided by six points or fewer. However, with Minnesota without PF Julius Randle (18.9 points per game) (per updated Rockets vs Timberwolves injuries), SG Anthony Edwards will be forced to shoulder the scoring load – right into Houston’s relentless defense. The Wolves will scrap, but this one’s shaping up to be a Rockets win. Final score? Rockets 118, Timberwolves 110.

Rockets vs Timberwolves Best 3 NBA Player Props Today

1. Anthony Edwards Under 29.5 Points

If Minnesota wants to take down Houston again – they’ll need a big night from Edwards. With Randle out, all those shot attempts have to go somewhere, and Edwards is first in line. That means more looks, more chances, and likely, plenty of points. But 30 points? No shot. Bet online for Edwards to finish with under 29.5 points as he tries to keep the Timberwolves in the fight.

Bet on Anthony Edwards Under 29.5 Points (-112)

2. Mike Conley Under 8.5 Points

PG Mike Conley has been the veteran leader for Minnesota, but let’s be real – scoring isn’t his job. He’s cleared 8.5 points once in the past five games, and last time against Houston, he managed only three points on 1-of-5 shooting. Sure, he’ll do better than that, but nine or more points? Against a tough Houston defense? Not buying it. For your NBA player prop pick tonight, take Conley to finish under 8.5 points.

3. Alperen Sengun Over 18.5 Points

The Rockets thrive on aggressive defense and a lethal transition offense, but let’s be honest – it’s been C Alperen Sengun leading the charge. He torched the Timberwolves last time for 38 points, and with Minnesota missing key players this time around, he’s in a great spot to put up numbers again. For NBA betting, this one’s a lock – ride with Sengun and the Rockets.

Rockets vs Timberwolves Moneyline Pick

I’m rolling with the Rockets on the moneyline here. The Timberwolves have had Houston’s number in the past, but without Randle and SG Donte DiVincenzo, their offense lacks the depth to keep up. Both teams can defend and rebound, but the Rockets’ deeper offense will be the deciding factor. Houston takes this one outright.

Rockets vs Timberwolves Spread Pick

It’s no surprise I’m sticking with the Rockets here. Just like the moneyline pick, Houston’s depth makes all the difference. Minnesota’s missing some key offensive pieces, leaving Edwards with the bulk of the work. Meanwhile, Houston’s lineup – featuring Sengun, SG Jalen Green, and F Amen Thompson – has enough firepower to cover. Houston’s offense will be the game-changer here.

Bet on Rockets -1.5 vs Timberwolves (-110)

Rockets vs Timberwolves Over/Under Pick

Despite the previous matchup hitting the over, I don’t see that happening this time. Minnesota’s offense is a bit light, and while Houston can score, the Timberwolves defense is holding its own – ranking just above the Rockets in points allowed per game. This is likely to be a tighter contest with a lower-than-expected score. Bet the under and play it safe.

Bet on Rockets vs Timberwolves Under 214 (-110)
