Timberwolves vs. Suns player picks and predictions
prediction
Suns 109, Timberwolves 106
money line
The Suns still have seven wins in their last 10 games, all four at home. I think they'll find a way to get this, but given the defensive excellence Minnesota has shown, there's no chance I'd spend -190 on them.
Instead, I, fresh out of a playoff game in his career, Jaden McDaniels has over 4.5 rebounds (+105). He has six boards and his eight boards in his first two games.
against proliferation
I'm on the Wolves side here. The Suns could absolutely beat them at home, but the Wolves stymied them on both sides of the ball. There's a good chance Minnesota actually wins.
Please take Timberwolves +4.5 (-115).
over/under
They've won the over and under in this series, with the Timberwolves holding the Suns to under 100 points in each game. I don't think the Suns will remain below 100 points in this game.
Please take 207.5 or higher (-110).
