Timberwolves at Kings picks and predictions

Forecast

Kings 118, Timberwolves 113

Moneyline

The KINGS (+105) are worth a roll of the dice as short ‘dogs at home in this In-Season Cup match.

The Timberwolves (-125) have stubbed their toe in 3 straight games, including back-to-back losses against the lowly Blazers. If Minnesota can lose to Portland twice in a row, it can lose to anyone.

Against the spread

Playing the Kings +1.5 (-110) doesn’t really make sense unless you strongly feel that the Timberwolves -1.5 (-110) will win, but only by a single point. If you like Sacto, playing it straight up is a much more economical play.

PASS.

Over/Under

ABOVE 222.5 (-110) is worth a look. The Over has hit in 2 of the last 3 games, with the Kings going for 127 points in each of those game-highs, both against the Suns.

When these teams met on Oct. 24, the combined total (222) tallied in Minnesota’s 117-115 victory at the Golden 1 Center.

The T-wolves have ended up going over in 3 of their last 5 games and 6 of their previous 9 contests since October 29th.
