Minnesota defeated Houston 124-106 on Wednesday, but the Timberwolves still aren't in a position to be laying many points against most teams. New Orleans is trying to make a go of it without Zion Williamson, who is out with a foot injury. The Pelicans shot nearly 50 percent at Chicago on Friday night, but they got down 65-47 at halftime and never recovered. Brandon Ingram scored 26 points and newly-acquired Jonas Valenciunas added 18 points for New Orleans, which won the last meeting 140-136 in overtime at Minnesota. The Timberwolves are 4-11-2 ATS their past 17 games after winning by at least 10 points, 7-18-1 ATS overall as home favorites. Take the Pelicans.
