Los Angeles at Minnesota

LeBron James and the Lakers are constantly improving the chemistry on the team and the Lakers had won two in a row before being derailed, 110-106, at San Antonio as the Spurs shot 48.4 percent. The Lakers won't have the same problem against the Timberwolves, who are off to a miserable start on offense with a .431 field goal percentage so far this season while allowing 47.6. Minnesota took 112 shots against Milwaukee and made only 36 in a 125-95 loss on Friday, and the Timberwolves were only 10-of-43 from 3-point range. Jimmy Butler, Josh Okogie and Jeff Teague were a combined 6-of-31 from the floor while totaling 12 points. The Lakers are 14-6 ATS the last 20 meetings at Minnesota and they are 13-6 ATS their last 19 games against teams with losing records dating to last season. The Timberwolves appear to be a team in disarray, especially with the Jimmy Butler situation. Play the Lakers.
