Portland at Minnesota

When Damian Lillard left Portland, the rebuild went into full swing. Portland is just 17-42 on the season and has a long way to go. Minneosta for the first time in decades is a team that is in the mix for an NBA Championship run. The Timberwolves are 42-19 on the season, and in a group of four teams all within 2.5 games of the top seed in the Western Conference playoffs. Minnesota is off a pair of tough losses by four points to the Kings and one point to the Clippers. I think after a couple high energy games, the T-Wolves will not be bringing their "A" game against lowly Portland. Minnesota is just 4-7 ATS when favored by 11.5 or more points on the season. Portland comes in at 9-4 ATS when taking 12 or more points. Make the play on Portland.
