San Antonio will try to avoid losing back-to-back games for the first time this season after shooting 35.4 percent and losing at Indiana 99-91 last night. The Spurs are 14-3 ATS after a loss and Minnesota, which lost 108-103 at Charlotte on Monday, is 16-33 ATS with no rest dating to last season. The Spurs have won both meetings this season, including 108-83 on this court on Dec. 23 as an 11-point favorite. Kawhi Leonard and LaMarcus Aldridge scored 23 points apiece against the Pacers, but the rest of the team shot just 30.2 percent from the floor. Karl Anthony-Towns finished with 28 points and 14 rebounds while Andrew Wiggins added 25 points in the Timberwolves loss to the Hornets, who got a game-high 34 points from Kemba Walker. Minnesota is 11-20-1 ATS at home and allowing an opponent field goal percentage of .469. The Spurs shoot 48.8 percent while allowing just 43.2. Look for San Antonio to bounce back in a big way, so play the Spurs.
