San Antonio Spurs vs Minnesota Timberwolves prediction
The San Antonio Spurs have not only lost every game for over a month, but they’re 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games despite being underdogs every night. The Minnesota Timberwolves play their best ball at home, where they’re 9-1 SU, and they’re a profitable 11-8 ATS on the season. Big number, but backing the Spurs in their current form isn’t really an option. It’s the Timberwolves or pass for me.
