Minnesota vs San Francisco Prediction

San Francisco probably has more horsepower offensively, and Minnesota has failed to cover its last 3 games. However, I like my dogs in these neutral site games where guys are still adjusting to the court. Also, Minnesota crashes the glass well and could have an advantage down low and with second chance points. It’s not going to be easy to matchup with Crocker-Johnson, who has double-digit rebounds in 4 of the first 5 games. I’ll grab the bucket in a game the Gophers could win outright.
