Let's get into the Wolves vs Spurs games now!
Minnesota Timberwolves -6 Point Spread (-108)
Minnesota has 2 wins in their last 3 games, one of those was against the Spurs who they beat 134-122 on their home court on Wednesday. It was their 7th win the last 10 meetings with San Antonio, they've also covered the spread in 8 of those games and are outscoring the Spurs by an average of 7.3 points. Spurs have exceeded expectations in the first week of the new season, but I'm expecting them to slowly come down to earth. This team has just 1 win in their last 6 games vs Western Conference teams and with the 3rd worst defense in the NBA right now I can't see them sustaining a winning record for much longer. Opponents are scoring 122 points per game against them, only the Brooklyn Nets and Detroit Pistons have worse numbers than that. Minnesota won the last meeting by 12 points, I see no reason why they can't cover the 6 point spread here.
