Oklahoma City has a rough turnaround after playing, and losing at Utah last night as Russell Westbrook had an off night scoring. He had only six points on two of 11 shooting, and the Thunder shot only 41.0 percent as a team. The Jazz never trailed after taking a 13-12 lead in the first quarter. Minnesota won its first game of the season on Friday, which also was against the Jazz. Jamal Crawford scored all of his 17 points in the fourth quarter, including the winning three-pointer, and Andrew Wiggins finished with 21 points. Karl Anthony-Towns also added 20 points and 10 rebounds for the Timberwolves, who expect much improvement this season with the arrival of some veterans such as Jimmy Butler. The Thunder is just 2-5 ATS its last seven home games dating to last season, and the UNDER is 21-6-1 in Minnesota's last 28 games against Northwest Division teams. Also, the Thunder has gone UNDER eight of its last 10 home contests, 16 of 21 overall, and four of the last five meetings have stayed UNDER. Play the Timberwolves and the UNDER.
