Game Prediction
This is a game that the Timberwolves should easily cruise to a win. Even if several Washington Wizards players have better days than what we’ve seen, it likely won’t be enough. Either way, it’s hard to see this Wizards team being able to collectively put together a good series of plays on either end of the court, let alone sustain good enough play for, say, one quarter. Over the course of 48 minutes, the Minnesota Timberwolves will not only comfortably win but also easily cover the spread.
Final Pick
Minnesota Timberwolves -16.5 (-110)
