Philadelphia at Minnesota

Minnesota got off to a 5-34 start and were not covering many games either. This young team has started to play at a higher level, despite the fact their latest losing streak has hit five. They have not gone two straight games without covering now since January 12th, and are 5-7 over their last 12. Most importantly, they are beating the sub-.500 teams at home now. They have won straight up and covered each of the last five at home vs sub-.500 teams. Four of the wins have come by double-digits. You have to go back over two months to find a game they lost in this spot. The Sixers closed on a five game winning streak before the break, but all five of those games were home and they are just 3-9 in their last 12 on the road. We like the young T-Wolves to continue to get it done vs the weaker teams at home.
