Prediction
This is the first of three chances the T’wolves have to close out this series and I think they get it done tonight. At least the 6 points looks appetizing. Minnesota is 20-5 since March 2 and they have a lot of confidence right now. The Lakers are having a tough time on offense this series and Minnesota has now covered five of the last seven meetings. L.A. could get the win tonight, but I like the Timberwolves to at least keep it close.
Pick: Timberwolves +6
