Our Cleveland Cavaliers vs Minnesota Timberwolves Prediction
Fearless Forecast: The Wolves carve out a convincing win over the Cavs 125-119.
Reasoning: The Wolves are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games and 8-4 ATS in their last 12 games against Cleveland. Cleveland has been really bad covering the spread as of late, holding a 1-4 ATS record in their last five games. Stars Julius Randle and Anthony Edwards are dealing with some injuries, but I still expect them to suit up in Saturday’s ballgame against the Cavs. As for Cleveland, all the starters are healthy and ready to play, but the biggest issue for them right now is their defense. Cleveland is letting opposing teams average 117.2 points per game this season. Minnesota is averaging 119.6 points per game this year.,
Our betting prediction for the Minnesota Timberwolves vs. the Cleveland Cavaliers: The Wolves +3.5 points
