Warriors vs Timberwolves Prediction
The Timberwolves obviously lose some steam and fun with the Edwards injury, but there’s still enough here to beat up on lesser teams. As I said from the start of the season, the Warriors are one of the worst rosters in the league, and a win over the Nuggets doesn’t change much. We’re also now seeing Lendonborg on the injury report, which isn’t ideal. When it rains, it pours. The Warriors are in terrible shape. The line is soft. I’ll gladly lay the number with the Timberwolves.
