Minnesota at Denver

Minnesota coach Flip Saunders is going with an attacking, uptempo style with rookie Andrew Wiggins and young swingman Shabazz Muhammad.  That's a good matchup against a Denver defense that is small and weak, in the middle of the pack in field goal shooting defense, plus 27th in the NBA in points allowed, surrendering 104 points per game. They are also in the middle of the pack (16th) in points scored. Denver is 5-13-1 ATS against the Western Conference, and the Nuggets are 17-35-2 ATS against team with a losing record. Denver is rested, but they are 0-7 ATS when playing on two days rest. When these teams meet, the road team is 20-6-1 ATS, the dog is 5-2 ATS, and the Timberwolves are 10-4 ATS in the last 14 meetings in Denver. Play the Minnesota Timberwolves.
