Point Spread Pick for Wizards vs. Timberwolves

  • Minnesota Timberwolves -16 (4 Units)

The Timberwolves have won five of their last six games, while the Wizards have lost 11 straight games. Minnesota has the edge here because theyโ€™re playing very well offensively, scoring more than 120 points per game while making 50 percent of their shots. Theyโ€™ve also done a better job at the charity stripe, making over 77 percent of their free throws. They do a good job of finding the open man, and they rebound the ball well, grabbing more than 10 offensive rebounds per game, which will give them more scoring chances. The Wizards have one of the worst defenses in the league, and they gave up more than 130 points per game in their last three games, so expect them to have a hard time slowing down the Timberwolves. Take Minnesota to cover the spread.
