Minnesota at New York

Both teams come into this game with a 4-3 record in the early going. Minnesota has shown a better offense so far, as the Timberwolves are hitting 50% of their shots and making 40% of their 3-pointers. The Knicks have shot poorly, making just 43% of their shots and 36% from beyond the arc. New York's defense has been worse as well, and the key edge tonight might be the Timberwolves' 40% 3-point shooting vs. the Knicks 40% allowed 3-point shooting. Minnesota has won the first two games of this three-game road trip and would love to go home off a 3-0 road trip. The Knicks are on a seven-game homestand, and sometimes these long stretches can lead to complacency. Make the play on Minnesota.
