Minnesota Timberwolves at Memphis Grizzlies Free Prediction

In the Timberwolves’ last contest, they easily covered the 6-point spread against the Cleveland Cavaliers, 118-103. The combined points for the game (221) were over the O/U total of 217. The Timberwolves forced 20 turnovers and had an effective field goal percentage of 0.568 (above their season average of 0.498). With 22 points on 8-for-10 shooting, Gorgui Dieng was Minnesota’s high scorer.

The Grizzlies defeated the Phoenix Suns in their last contest, 121-114, despite being 7-point underdogs. The total points for the game (235) were just under the O/U total of 236. Memphis made 18 of their 42 three pointers (42.9 percent). Phoenix, on the other hand, held the Grizzlies to an offensive rebounding percentage of 8.1 (below their season average of 22.2). Jonas Valanciunas led Memphis in scoring with 30 points on 12-for-16 shooting from the field.

Both teams have had a player take their game to the next level over their last five games. Robert Covington (15 points,8.6 rebounds,2.0 steals,1.6 blocks) has been stellar for the Timberwolves while Jaren Jackson Jr. (19 points,6.6 rebounds,2.0 blocks) has contributed greatly to the Grizzlies.

The Grizzlies have won both matchups against the Timberwolves this season, including an eight-point victory in their last matchup. Memphis covered as a 12-point underdog and the game finished with a total of 222 points, which was 9 points below the projected point total of 231 points. The Grizzlies had a better turnover percentage (9.1 vs. 13.7) and had a better effective field goal percentage (0.490 vs. 0.453).
