Oklahoma City Thunder at Minnesota Timberwolves Preview & Picks
Oklahoma City are tipped to cover as they pick up the win at Minnesota.
The Thunder have been in solid form on the road recently, and can take advantage of a Timberwolves team playing the second game of a back-to-back.
- Oklahoma City Thunder are 5-2 in their last 7 road games
- Minnesota Timberwolves are 2-5 in their previous 7 games
- Oklahoma City Thunder are 14-2-1 ATS in their last 17 wins
- The Under cashed in the 2 previous meetings this season
Head To Head
- Oklahoma City Thunder lead the all-time series 100-52
- Minnesota Timberwolves won 112-107 when the two teams last met on December 19
Oklahoma City Thunder Form
Oklahoma City head to Minnesota on the back of their eighth win in their last 11 games, and having snapped a two-game skid.
The Thunder began this run with a 129-125 overtime win at home to Utah, following it up with a 117-116 victory when they visited Memphis.
They then beat Miami 124-112 and San Antonio 119-98 at home, before heading out on the road to take down Houston, 111-91.
Oklahoma City’s run was ended by a 122-120 defeat in Miami, but they rebounded immediately with road successes at Cleveland, 136-104, and Milwaukee, 122-102.
The Thunder then returned home to lose 117-114 to Indiana and 103-101 to Toronto, only to avoid a third straight defeat with a 104-95 victory over New Orleans.
Minnesota Timberwolves Form
Minnesota come into this game having rebounded from a five-game losing skid with back-to-back victories.
The Timberwolves’ five-game skid started on the road as they lost 110-105 to the Rockets in Houston.
They then wrapped up that road trip with a 126-123 defeat in San Antonio, followed by a 127-122 loss at the hands of Utah.
A return home did not bring about improved fortunes for Minnesota, as they were beaten 120-115 by Chicago and 111-85 by Golden State.
The Timberwolves finally stopped the rot by avenging that loss to the Warriors, winning the rematch 108-83, and they backed that up in Dallas last night with a 118-105 victory.
Verdict
These two teams have split the previous meetings this season, with each winning at home.
We expect that trend to end here though, with Oklahoma City in good form on the road and consistently covering when they win.
