Timberwolves at Clippers picks and predictions

Prediction

Timberwolves 122, Clippers 118

Moneyline

The Clippers have lost 2 in a row, 2 home games in a row and 4 of their last 5 games at Crypto.com Arena. They are allowing 132.0 points per game in their last 5 contests.

The Timberwolves, although 11-18 on the road this season, are 3-3 in their last 6 road games, alternating wins and losses, with their last road game a loss. If they crack the 120-point mark, they are hard to beat, having won 4 of their last 5 games scoring at least 120 points.

If you want to go for a big payout, this game is worth it. BET TIMBERWOLVES (+200).

Against the spread

Minnesota is 12-17 ATS on the road this season, while L.A. is 13-16 ATS at home. The Timberwolves have failed to cover the spread in their last 3 games and have not gone longer than 3 games this season without covering it.

The Clippers are 5-5 ATS in their last 10 games and are 7-1 ATS in their last 8 Tuesday games.

If you aren’t quite as confident in the Timberwolves winning outright, go ahead and lean on them to cover at least, as they have not lost to the spread in 4 consecutive games yet this season.

BET TIMBERWOLVES +6.5 (-112).

Over/Under

The Over is 4-0 in the Clippers’ last 4 games and LA has allowed 132.0 points per game in the last 5 games.

The Over is 4-1 in the Timberwolves’ last 5 games road games and in their last 5 road games against teams with a winning home record.

BET OVER 234.5 (-105).

Timberwolves at Clippers picks and predictions

Prediction

Clippers 109, Timberwolves 101

Moneyline

Minnesota is 6-7 on the road this season and has lost 4 of its last 5 road games.

The Clippers are 8-6 at home and will have both Paul George and Kawhi Leonard in the lineup. They kicked off their 5-game homestand with a 20-point win over the best team in the league in the Celtics.

That play should carry over, but a wager on the moneyline doesn’t make sense at this price.

PASS.

Against the spread

The Timberwolves are only 10-17 ATS this season and are 4-6 ATS in their last 10 games.

The Clippers are 14-15 ATS, but have covered the spread in 3 straight games.

With the Clippers having both stars in the lineup, expect the home team to cover the spread.

BET CLIPPERS -6.5 (-105).

Over/Under

The Timberwolves’ last 5 games have all had at least 224 points.

The Clippers are 11-18 O/U this season and only 5 of their 16 wins this season have had 224 or more points.

BET UNDER 223.5 (-110).
