Minnesota Timberwolves vs Phoenix Suns: BETTING TIPS, PREDICTION & BETTING ODDS

Things just got a lot more interesting atop of the Western Conference following last night’s Denver loss to the Clippers. Minnesota is now 0.5 games ahead for the top spot with a game in hand, that game will be played in Phoenix as they take on the Suns for the 2nd time this season. The first meeting was a game to forget for Anthony Edwards and co. as they got destroyed 133-115. Stakes are much higher this time around, these two teams will meet one more time on the final day of the season in Minnesota. With just 1 win in the last 9 meetings, the Timberwolves will have their work cut out here. They’ve failed to cover the spread in 7 straight meetings as well, but after a convincing win over Toronto in which they scored 20 threes I really like their chances here.

The Suns have also been on fire from downtown, connecting on 18 threes in back-to-back wins over Cleveland and New Orleans. Devin Booker has decided to take it upon himself to carry this team into the postseason. He’s dropped 52 and 40 points in those 2 wins, his match-up with Ant-man is a must watch tonight. Book is averaging 27.6 points per game in the last 5 meetings, he dropped 31 in the first game of the season between the two teams. It’s not only Booker that the T’Wolves have to worry about here though, Kevin Durant is also on a heater right now averaging 27.4 points per game in his last 5 outings. The Suns are 6-2 ATS/SU in their last 8 games, a win here would solidify their grip on the 6th seed in the loaded Western Conference.

Phoenix Suns Point Spread Prediction

Suns -3.5 Point Spread is available at -110 odds

I have to go with the more experienced Suns here. They’ve won 2 straight by double-digits and have dominated Minnesota in the first meeting by 18 points. Booker is on fire, I can’t see how the Timberwolves contain him here. Back Phoenix to cover.

Minnesota Timberwolves vs Phoenix Suns Total Points Prediction: Over 218.5

Over 218.5 Total Points is available at -110 odds

With the Suns playing at home here, I think they’ll look to assert themselves and control the tempo right from the get go. This team loves to play fast, they’re the 4th most efficient offense in the NBA over the last 15 game played with 118.9 points scored per 100 possessions. The duo of Durant and Booker has combined for 72 points in 2 straight games, they’ll be a handful to cover for whoever gets to play the Suns in the first round of the playoffs. Minnesota has seemingly dealt well with opposing offenses in their last 2 games, but it’s one thing playing the Suns compared to going up against teams like Toronto and Houston. The last 10 meetings between these two teams are averaging 229.1 points per game, the over has cashed in 5 of the 7 most recent games. The Timberwolves own a 21-17 O/U record on the road this season, they’ve also cashed on this bet 4 times in their last 5 games vs Pacific Division opponents. I’m projecting this game to finish in the mid-220s, so let’s back the over here.
