Minnesota Timberwolves at Los Angeles Lakers Preview & Picks
Minnesota Timberwolves at Los Angeles Lakers Preview & Picks
Minnesota are backed to cover as a betting underdog in Los Angeles.
The Timberwolves’ size and depth has been too much for a Lakers team who have also shown an unhealthy knack for choking in clutch moments this season.
- Minnesota Timberwolves are 5-2 in the last 7 meetings with LA
- Minnesota Timberwolves are 5-2-0 ATS in their previous 7 games
- Los Angeles Lakers are 3-4-1 ATS in their last 8 home games
- The Under has cashed in 6 of the last 8 meetings
Head To Head
- Los Angeles Lakers lead the all-time series 96-53
- Minnesota Timberwolves won 116-113 when the two teams last met on April 27
Minnesota Timberwolves Form
Minnesota head back out on the road in full control of this series, having opened up a 3-1 lead over the weekend.
The Timberwolves made a perfect start to the series as they won 117-95 in Los Angeles, and although they lost the second meeting 94-85, they had gained an early edge.
They returned home following that loss to the Lakers and took command of the series with back-to-back wins.
Minnesota regained the series lead with a 116-104 victory, and then backed that up on Sunday as they beat LA 116-113 to put themselves within one win of the next round.
The Timberwolves claimed their place in the postseason by compiling a 49-33 regular-season record to finish sixth in the Western Conference.
Los Angeles Lakers Form
Los Angeles return home in desperate need of a victory, after back-to-back road losses left them on the brink of elimination.
The Lakers made a nightmare start to the postseason as they surrendered home court advantage with a 117-95 home defeat to Minnesota.
They bounced back in the second meeting, winning 94-85, but they have failed to follow that up.
Los Angeles went out on the road to lose 116-104 and 116-103 in Minnesota, and that means one more defeat will bring an end to their season.
The Lakers secured their postseason berth by putting together a 50-32 regular-season record to finish third in the Western Conference.
Verdict
Minnesota have won and covered consistently against Los Angeles this season.
Anthony Edwards is dominating and the Timberwolves have momentum on their side, so give us the visitors and those free points.
