Minnesota Timberwolves vs Phoenix Suns Prediction
We’ve been riding with the Suns during this winning stretch, where they’re 8-2 SU and ATS in their last 10 games. However, this is a step-up in competition and the Suns have lost 8 straight games against the Timberwolves. The Suns haven’t beat the Timberwolves since April 2024. I’d love to know the status of McDaniels before locking in a bet, as an elite defender can limit a banged up Suns squad as it is. Still, the line is reasonable. I’ll side with history and back the Timberwolves.
