Result:
LOSS

Oklahoma City comes home after two road wins over New Orleans and Boston to face the Timberwolves, who have covered the spread five of their last six games. Minnesota had its ATS streak broken in a 109-105 loss to Sacramento on Friday as DeMarcus Cousins scored 32 points, and the Kings shot 52.5 percent overall and 51.7 percent from three-point range. Zach LaVine exploded for 40 points, and Karl-Anthony Towns added 20 points and 13 rebounds for the Timberwolves in the losing effort. Minnesota was coming off an impressive win at Atlanta, and it has covered the number its last four games against winning teams. Oklahoma City has been playing without Victor Oladipo, who is out indefinitely with a wrist sprain. Look for Tom Thibodeau to have his team ready defensively as the Timberwolves are 4-0 ATS their last four games after allowing 100-plus points in their previous game. Play the Timberwolves.
