San Antonio has won two of the three meetings this season, including a 124-98 demolition of the Timberwolves on Dec. 21. The Spurs shot 52.9 percent in that game while holding Minnesota to 39.8 percent. The Spurs snapped a two-game losing streak with a 105-101 win at Dallas on Wednesday as Davis Bertans hit a go-ahead three-pointer with 1:41 left and the Spurs erased a 19-point deficit. Minnesota comes off an embarrassing 149-107 loss at Philadelphia and the 76ers scored 83 points in the first half while the Timberwolves shot only 38.9 percent in the game. The Spurs have covered six of the last eight meetings at Minnesota and five of the last seven overall. San Antonio also is 16-5-1 ATS its last 22 games overall and 11-3-1 ATS its last 15 games versus Western Conference teams. The Timberwolves haven't had much time to make some defensive adjustments and the line on this game is near even. Take the Spurs on the moneyline.
