Our Golden State Warriors vs Minnesota Timberwolves Prediction
Minnesota is back to being a double-digit favorite in Game 5, mainly because they are playing at home and Stephen Curry is still sidelined. Because of this, we are going to be targeting a player prop, that being Julius Randle to go over his point total of 21.5
Randle has been one of Minnesota’s best players in not only the playoffs, but specifically this series against the Warriors. Overall, he is averaging 23.3 points in the playoffs and 24.3 points in four games against Golden State. Randle has scored 22 points or more in seven of the Timberwolves’ nine playoff games, including three of the four games in this series.
With the Warriors having shown no signs of being able to slow down Randle, our Golden State Warriors vs Minnesota Timberwolves prediction is Julius Randle Over 21.5 Points.Jackpot Pools
