Timberwolves at Trail Blazers picks and predictions

Prediction

Trail Blazers 121, Timberwolves 115

Moneyline

The TRAIL BLAZERS (-175) are priced just slightly under my personal limit for a standalone moneyline bet, although I would just play this lightly. These teams just met Saturday, and it’s difficult to beat the same team twice in a back-to-back set.

Against the spread

I like the TRAIL BLAZERS -4.5 (-110) laying fewer than 3 buckets. Portland won 124-118 Saturday, and Minnesota has covered just once in the past 4 games away from the Twin Cities.

Portland has cashed in 4 straight, and it is stacking covers, too, going 11-5 ATS in the past 16 following a cover in the previous outing.

Over/Under

OVER 230.5 (-110) is a high number, so go lightly here.

The Under is 5-2 in the past 7 for Minnesota against teams with a winning overall record, while going 12-4-1 in the past 17 meetings in Portland. However, Saturday’s game did cash the Over, and the teams will do it again here.

Timberwolves at Trail Blazers odds, lines, picks and predictions

Prediction

Trail Blazers 121, Timberwolves 117

Money line

This should be a fun game as both teams come in riding some success. The Timberwolves are 10-13 on the road this season but are 4-3 in their last seven games away from home.

Portland has won four of its last six at home. They will want to avenge the 116-111 home loss they had against the Timberwolves. They have the size to match up with C Karl-Anthony Towns and the guard play to match G D’Angelo Russell.

Take the TRAIL BLAZERS (+125).

Against the spread

The Timberwolves are 9-5 ATS in their last 14 games. The Blazers are 6-2 ATS in their last eight games.

The Timberwolves are 13-10 ATS on the road this season. The Blazers are 12-13 ATS at home.

The Blazers actually struggle as the underdog. They are 8-14 ATS as underdogs this season, while the Wolves are 10-10 ATS as favorites.

However, expecting a Portland win outright, take the TRAIL BLAZERS +3.5 (-107).

Over/Under

Seven of the last eight games for the Timberwolves have gone Over the projected total. They have scored 119 or more in six of their last eight games.

The Blazers are 4-5 O/U in their last nine.

The two teams combined for 227 points in their first matchup. They will surpass that this time around.

Take OVER 232.5 (-110).

Timberwolves at Trail Blazers: Odds, betting lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Trail Blazers 122, Timberwolves 115

Money line (ML)

Minnesota has lost five games in a row since opening the season 2-0. They are 1-3 on the road and struggle without Towns. Portland has lost two in a row to drop under .500 and were favored in both of those games. However, despite being 1-2 at home in the Moda Center, they will get back on track against a Timberwolves team that is scuffling. Take the TRAIL BLAZERS -550.

Against the spread (ATS)

Portland has one of the worst records in the league, going 2-5 ATS so far. Minnesota is one game better at 3-4 ATS and covered in their most recent loss to the Denver Nuggets. Portland has only covered the spread in one of the four games this season in which they have been the favorites. Take the TIMBERWOLVES +10.5.

Over/Under (O/U)

The Trail Blazers are eighth in the league in scoring at 114.6 points per game. Minnesota is among the worst, putting up 107.6. Both teams are 3-4 O/U this season. The Wolves’ last three games’ have gone Over. Portland’s games have alternated all season and is coming off a game that went Under. Take OVER 232.5 POINTS (-110).
