New Orleans at Minnesota

The Minnesota Timberwolves were a tease the last couple of seasons. They appeared to have some strong young talent but never seemed to be able to get over the top. They broke up their roster and started over for the most part and have paid the price so far. One thing this young team has failed to do is meet the challenge of playing at home with a better team on the other end of the floor. Minnesota has been the worst home dog team in the NBA for several years, and they are in the worst scenario they have faced in recent years. The Timberwolves are 5-25 ATS as a home dog of greater than five points playing an opponent with a winning percentage of less than .638 in their last 30. This situation is strong enough to go chalk here, so take New Orleans.
