Our Best Bet:
Minnesota Timberwolves ML (+105)
Minnesota has been the more consistent and balanced team, especially on the road. With playoff seeding still in play, expect a motivated effort led by Anthony Edwards and anchored by Gobert’s interior defense. Memphis has struggled at home and lacks the late-game execution Minnesota has shown recently. With better form and more urgency, the Timberwolves should win outright as a slight underdog.
