Minnesota Timberwolves Betting Preview
The Minnesota Timberwolves have been in decent shape as they’ve won five of their last eight games overall, but they will be eager to bounce back in this one after getting beaten by the Pistons in a 113-108 road defeat last night. Julius Randle led the team with 27 points, six rebounds and six assists on nine of 15 shooting, Ayo Dosunmu and Naz Reid each scored 19 points while Mike Conley chipped in with 14 points. As a team, the Timberwolves shot 44 percent from the field and 13 of 42 from the 3-point line as they battled the Pistons in a close contest and looked to have the momentum after taking a four-point lead early in the fourth quarter, before the Pistons took the game away with a crucial 13-1 run.
Philadelphia 76ers Betting Preview
Meanwhile, the Philadelphia 76ers have been in great shape as they’ve won seven of their last 10 games overall and they will be eager to keep it going after blowing past the lowly Wizards in a 153-131 road win on Wednesday. Paul George led the team with 39 points and six assists on 15 of 22 shooting, Tyrese Maxey added 28 points with nine assists while VJ Edgecombe chipped in with 23 points and 10 assists. As a team, the 76ers shot a sizzling 62 percent from the field and 17 of 35 from the 3-point line, but they only led by two points at halftime before they exploded for 47 points in the third quarter to pull away and win comfortably.
Minnesota v Philadelphia Free Prediction
The Timberwolves are still keeping an eye on Anthony Edwards who is questionable, while the 76ers have ruled out Johni Broome and Joel Embiid. The Timberwolves have been in decent form despite missing Edwards and they put up a great fight against the red-hot Pistons last night, but it’s going to be tough to back that up on zero days’ rest against the improving 76ers who are on a roll at the moment. You can make an argument for either side here, but I like the 76ers to take care of business at home behind another big game from George or Maxey.
Peter Tran's Pick: Philadelphia -1.5
