1.88Tip and bets
Minnesota has had a good start to the season, winning three of five games. San Antonio statistics are slightly worse. The Spurs defeated an equally strong opponent in their last game, but they are unlikely to be able to handle the Timberwolves. Wembanyama has clearly improved in his second season in the NBA, but it is still difficult for him, due to his youth, to carry the entire team on his own. The team from Minneapolis will have to achieve victory.
Our prediction is Minnesota victory with a handicap of (-2.5) points including overtime at 1.76
Bet on individual total
Minnesota will put its strongest players on the court. But even with all the leaders in the Timberwolves lineup, it shows low efficiency. The average score is 113.9. And in away games it is slightly lower - 110.2. And this time the team from the North Star State will not be able to decently load the basket of the opponent.
Our prediction is Minnesota individual total over 111.5 points including overtime at 2.07
Bet on the first half
The San Antonio basketball players are in a great mood after a successful trip to Utah. The Spurs, no doubt, will try to build on their success. The players of Popovich team will show who is the boss on the court of the AT&T Center stadium from the first minutes of the match and will seize the initiative. However, this will not be enough for overall success.
Our prediction is a San Antonio win in the first half of the game at 2.32
