Toronto at Minnesota

Premium Pick

Minnesota has endured a lot of injuries, and have played well recently, but all but one of those games was vs. top competition. I can definitely see the intensity wane here vs. a Toronto team that won't get their blood flowing. The Raptors have scored under 100 points in 10 of their last 11 games. I can see an ugly game taking place here with a pair of teams heading nowhere facing each other. In the Raptors' last contest vs. Washington, only 166 total points were produced. The Raptors have struggled vs. good teams, but have managed to come away with an 18-8 ATS mark vs. a team below .400, including 7-2 ATS vs. a team with a losing home record. The T-Wolves get that satisfied feeling off a straight-up win, as they are an ugly 3-12-1 ATS following one. The Raptors play low and ugly vs. a team below .400 at 11-3 to the UNDER in their last 14, and Minnesota is now 0-4- to the UNDER in their last 15 on home hardwood. The Raptors own a 6-1 ATS mark here in their last seven, with the UNDER producing a 7-2 mark in the last nine here. Go with Toronto and the UNDER in this one.
