Minnesota Timberwolves Betting Preview
The Minnesota Timberwolves were struggling during their three-game skid but they will be feeling much better after they snapped out of it with a 127-117 road win over the Warriors on Friday. Anthony Edwards led the team with 42 points, eight rebounds and five assists on 13 of 22 shooting, Rudy Gobert added 18 points with nine rebounds on five of five shooting while Jaden McDaniels chipped in with 15 points ons ix of nine shooting. As a team, the Timberwolves shot 56 percent from the field and 12 of 30 from the 3-point line as they took full control of the contest with a 38-20 second quarter to lead by as many as 25 points which was more than enough to hold off a late rally from the Warriors who poured in 69 points in the second half.
Oklahoma City Thunder Betting Preview
Meanwhile, the Oklahoma City Thunder have been in red-hot form as they’ve won 12 of their last 14 games overall and they will be aiming for an eighth straight victory after outlasting the Celtics in a 104-102 win on Thursday. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander led the team with 35 points, six rebounds and nine assists, Ajay Mitchell added 15 points with six assists while Chet Holmgren chipped in with 14 points and nine rebounds but no other player finished in double figures in points. As a team, the Thunder shot 48 percent from the field and 11 of 44 from the 3-point line as they battled the Celtics in a close contest that looked headed for overtime, before Chet Holmgren drained the game winning free throws with just 0.8 seconds left in the fourth quarter to win the game in regulation.
Minnesota v Oklahoma City Free Prediction
The Timberwolves are keeping an eye on Anthony Edwards who is questionable due to right knee soreness, while the Thunder have ruled out Jalen Williams and Branden Carlson with Isaiah Hartenstein listed as questionable. These teams have already clashed three times this season with the Timberwolves winning the last two meetings to lead the series by 2-1. The injury cloud hanging over the Timberwolves’ Edwards makes the pick a little tricky, but assuming that Edwards sits out, I will stick with the Thunder to continue their strong run with a win and cover behind their elite defense.
