LiontipsMinnesota vs Indiana. Prediction and Betting Tips for NBA
Command Analysis
Minnesota have finally gained form. After a poor start of the season Finch's men managed to step up and now they are looking great. Timberwolves became a tough opponent for any team. In recent matches they beat Miami (113:101), Memphis (138:95) and Philadelphia (121:120). After those victories Wolves rose to the 6th spot in the Western conference.
Team is carried by Towns, Russell and Edwards. In the previous match that trio managed to bring the victory to the team, despite a 42-point performance by Joel Embiid. It will be interesting to see, how Wolves will play, if one of their leaders will get the injury.
Indiana have suffered another defeat. This time Rick Carlisle's men failed to put up a fight in the game against Milwaukee (100:118). Champion took the lead since the first minutes of the game and eventually took the victory. Pacers were trying their best, but they fell short.
It will be hard for the Pacers to fight for a play-off spot in the current season. Domantas Sabonis' performance declined, Caris LeVert and Malcolm Brogdon are also not looking great.
