Randy’s Free Pick
The Minnesota Timberwolves have the rest advantage, but they're just not a team I trust against quality teams. The Denver Nuggets are also one of the better home teams in the league, where they win by an average of 11.1 points and shoot 51.2 percent from the field. Thick line, but I don't like the Timberwolves in these spots. Give me the Nuggets.
