Minnesota is 3-11 straight-up at home, ranked #26 in shooting on offense, #29 in three-point shooting, #20 from the charity stripe, while the defense is #25 in points surrendered, #20 at defending beyond the arc. And Minnesota is 6-15 ATS against teams that allow 106+ points per game, plus 9-18 ATS versus opponents who make six or more treys per contest. Play Brooklyn.
