Philadelphia 76ers vs Minnesota Timberwolves Prediction
This game comes down to which Philadelphia 76ers side is going to show up and if they're going to play some of their better players. These bigger lines suggest teams are going to start sitting guys who have shown they're too advanced for the summer league. With all of that said, the Minnesota Timberwolves have looked sharp at both ends of the floor, and they're 2-0 SU through two games. The line is reasonable. I'll ride the hot hand and lay the chalk with the Timberwolves, as they improve to 3-0 SU in summer league play.
