Minnesota Timberwolves vs LA Clippers Prediction

The Minnesota Timberwolves are getting the benefit of the doubt because they’re supposed to be the better team, and they have the rest advantage. However, who is running to the window to lay chalk with the Timberwolves on the road? The Timberwolves have lost 6 of their last 10 games and are 7-13 ATS on the season. The Clippers have seen 9 of their 14 wins come at home and these teams played last week, and it was decided by one point. The Timberwolves could start to get their act together and win, but in current forms, the value in this spot is with the Clippers and the free bucket.
