The Minnesota Timberwolves aren't nearly as good on the road as they are at home, and they do lose in the underdog role by an average of 5.7 points. The Toronto Raptors have quietly been one of the hotter teams in the league over the last couple of weeks, and that includes winning their last five games by an average of 9.4 points. Nobody has been as high on the Timberwolves as me since the start of the season, but I have to lean toward the Raptors here and the small chalk at home.
