Minnesota Timberwolves Fantasy Spin
Updating a previous report, Robert Covington (sore right knee) hasn’t been cleared to play yet for Monday night vs. the Warriors. Covington said earlier that he feels good enough to play and he was listed as probable, but coach Tom Thibodeau said he’ll make a decision after warmups. If RoCo can’t play, Josh Okogie should remain in the rotation after a solid showing vs. the Blazers on Saturday.
Golden State Warriors Fantasy Spin
Draymond Green (toe) will play on Monday against the Timberwolves. Green will be returning from an 11-game absence, but he won’t be dealing with any sort of minutes limit, so owners can feel confident plugging him into their starting lineups tomorrow night. With Green back in action, Andre Iguodala will likely return to the second unit and guys like Jordan Bell, Kevon Looney and Jonas Jerebko won’t play quite as much.
NBA Betting Trends
Minnesota
The Timberwolves are 5-0 against the spread in their last five games playing on one day of rest.
Golden State
The Warriors have failed to cover the spread in six of their last seven Western Conference matchups.
Prediction
The home team is 6-0-1 against the number in the last seven games between these two teams and the favorite is 3-1-1 ATS in the last five meetings. The Timberwolves have struggled to cover the spread in this matchup, going 0-3-1 ATS in their last four games played at Oracle Arena and 1-3-1 ATS in their last five games versus the Warriors overall. Minnesota has been a poor bet as a road team too, going 11-25 against the spread in its last 36 games away from home.
