The weekend is almost here, but before that we have a tasty 8-game night on a Friday in the NBA. NBA TV will have a double-header coming our way, with the Cavs vs Timberwolves match-up at 8 pm ET. The 76ers and Lakers conclude the action at 10.30 pm, I've settled for 3 teams in my NBA Mega Parlay. Check it out below!
I would also encourage you to visit our NBA picks page for predictions on the side and total for the rest of Friday's games.
Now let's dive into my bet!
CLE Cavaliers ML over MIN Timberwolves (+198)
These two teams actually played each other less than 2 weeks ago in Cleveland and the Cavaliers came out on top 113-104 in OT. Minnesota's injury situation has gotten a lot worse since that game. Rudy Gobert played in only one game since that loss in Cleveland, he's questionable to play with a rib injury here. His backup Naz Reid is also a game-time decision with a head injury, missing both their big men will be a major issue here. Jarrett Allen had 33 points and 18 rebounds in that first meeting.
