Premium Pick

Indiana won the first meeting, 130-107, on Oct. 24, and the Pacers have won four of their last five against the Timberwolves. Minnesota lost at Milwaukee on Thursday and will be playing without point guard Jeff Teague, who is out for at least two weeks with a knee injury. Jimmy Butler is probable due to an ankle injury. The Timberwolves blew a 20-point lead against the Bucks with Karl-Anthony Towns scoring 22 points in a losing cause that saw the Bucks shoot 54.7 percent against the T-Wolves' defense. The Pacers have hit a rough spot, but they are 12-4 ATS their last 16 games after a loss and are a small underdog in this matchup. Indiana is 11-8 at home this season. Take the Pacers on the moneyline.
