Phoenix Suns vs Minnesota Timberwolves Prediction
The Timberwolves have won seven straight games against the Suns, and they’re the healthiest team in the league right now. The Timberwolves should win, and history suggests they will. However, the Timberwolves continue to play with their food, and you’re never sure which team is showing up. We just saw the Timberwolves lose to the Pelicans and Pacers as double-digit favorites. The Suns have quietly played improved ball with wins in five of their last seven games, and they need to keep winning to get back in the play-in conversation. The Suns also should have some pride after constantly getting beat up by the Timberwolves. I’ll take a stab with the points.
