Toronto at Minnesota

The Timberwolves have turned the corner after starting 3-23. This team could have quit, but have instead gone 13-10 in their last 23. A team that reached 100 points in just nine of those first 23 has reached it 14 times in the last 23. This team is coming together on the offensive end. They lose a key contributor as Jefferson is out with a knee injury and what they lose offensively, they also lose defensively. It hurts them more defensively than it does offensively. Here is why: Jefferson's five-worst scoring nights on the season have been 16, 14, 12, nine, and eight points, and all five of those T-Wolves games went OVER the total. The offense is much improved as it will be the defense that takes the hit, so I like this one to go OVER the total.
