Golden State at Minnesota

Golden St. and Minnesota have both struggled as the Warriors come into this game under .500 for the season. This used to be a knockdown shooting team, but with Klay Thompson gone, and Stephen Curry showing some age, Golden St. is shooting just 45% on the season. The best thing Minnesota does is defend. Opponents are shooting just 45% and 34% from deep. Golden St. wouldn't even be in the play-in round if the season started today. Golden St. is playing well below the line as they are just 4-11 ATS in their last 15 games. Minnesota has their own problems at 21-18 on the season, but has shown signs of life as they are 4-1 in their last five games. I like Minnesota in this one.
