Free Betting Pick: Washington Wizards -2
The Washington Wizards have dominated the number at home against the Minnesota Timberwolves as of recent as they have covered the spread in 11 of their last 14 meetings. The Minnesota Timberwolves will be playing without their star center Karl-Anthony Towns (27.3 PPG, 11.5 RPG) after being suspended for 2 games due to a fight between him and Joel Embiid, and that could be a problem against the Wizards. The Washington Wizards will have a slight edge in this matchup due to having all-star Bradley Beal leading their attack as he is averaging 26.8 PPG, but the biggest surprise has been the production out of rookie Rui Hachimura as he is pitching in 18 PPG. The Washington Wizards will come into this game well-rested, and I believe they edge out the Timberwolves on their home floor. Final Score Prediction, Washington Wizards win and cover ATS 111-104.
