Minnesota is a little short-handed going into Tuesday’s Nuggets vs Timberwolves matchup, with Karl-Anthony Towns out and Rudy Gobert and Naz Reid both questionable. But we like the Timberwolves to cover the spread as a 7.5-point underdog at home. The Wolves are the best defensive team in the NBA this season and that defense will help them to hang around in this game even if they are missing some big men while trying to deal with Nikola Jokic.
