The San Antonio Spurs and the Minnesota Timberwolves collide at the Target Center on Monday night.

The San Antonio Spurs have been in decent form as they will be aiming for a third straight win after taking down the 76ers in a 114-105 upset on Saturday. Devin Vassell led the team with 22 points on nine of 14 shooting, Keldon Johnson added 21 points with eight rebounds while Tre Jones chipped in with 13 points and 12 rebounds on six of nine shooting. As a team, the Spurs shot 48 percent from the field and 16 of 38 from the 3-point line as they took control of the contest with 35 points in the second quarter before pulling away in the second half despite a 40-point performance from the 76ers’ Joel Embiid.


Meanwhile, the Minnesota Timberwolves will be looking to stay hot after taking down the Thunder in a 116-106 road win last night. Anthony Edwards led the team with 30 points and 11 rebounds on 13 of 19 shooting, Rudy Gobert and Karl-Anthony Towns each scored 15 points while Naz Reid and Jaylen Nowell each scored 14 points. As a team, the Timberwolves shot a healthy 52 percent from the field and 10 of 34 from the 3-point line as they hit the ground running and jumped out to an early 22-point lead which allowed them to cruise in the second half.

Looking at the betting trends, the Spurs are 5-0 ATS in their last five road games and 12-2 ATS in their last 14 games overall. The Timberwolves are 1-7 ATS in their last eight home games and 3-9 ATS in their last 12 games overall.

Head to head, the over is 9-4 in the last 13 meetings overall, the Spurs are 1-7 ATS in the last eight meetings overall and the Spurs are 1-4 ATS in the last five meetings in Minnesota.

The Spurs are coming into this game with plenty of momentum and they will be brimming with confidence following their upset road win over the 76ers. The Timberwolves have looked pretty good so far this season, but they fell victim to the new-look Jazz in a tough overtime loss, so they will be itching to get back in the win column. The Spurs are 5-0 ATS in their last five road games while the Timberwolves are 1-7 ATS in their last eight home games, so I’m leaning towards the Spurs at this hefty line.
