Minnesota was able to avoid the sweep by winning Game 4 in Dallas, but once again their backs are against the wall as they host the Mavericks in Game 5 at Target Center on Thursday night. Tip-off is at 8.30 pm ET on TNT, I've prepared a Same Game Parlay to spice things up.

Let's head into my SGP bet now!
MIN Timberwolves ML (-196)
Karl-Anthony Towns finally answered the call. After struggling in the opening 3 games of this series, KAT had his most efficient game of the series by far scoring 25 points on 9-for-13 from the field. He also went 4-for-5 from downtown, hitting a couple of threes late in the game to keep the Timberwolves afloat. Anthony Edwards also stepped up with 29, making the most out of the absence of Dereck Lively II. Both teams have now won on the road, we have ourselves a series here.
