Point Spread Pick
MIN Timberwolves -7.5(-110)

The Minnesota Timberwolves will be trying to extend their winning streak to 5 games when they visit the Memphis Grizzlies on Monday night. These 2 teams just faced each other on Saturday — also in Memphis — and the Timberwolves rolled 131-114. That was preceded by victories over Golden State, Dallas and Oklahoma City (all by at least 12 points). The T-Wolves aren’t just winning these days; they are crushing people. As for the Grizzlies, they are going in the complete opposite direction. They have lost 6 consecutive contests, with each of the last 4 setbacks coming by 8 points or more. I’m backing the trends to continue, so my Timberwolves vs Grizzlies pick is for the visitors to win and cover.

Minnesota controls 2 key possession levers that matter more than total talent across 48 minutes: paint scoring and defensive rebounding. Memphis has flashed some scoring and athletic ability, but its offensive rhythm is volatile — booming in bursts but vulnerable to long droughts. Memphis’ defensive rebounding rate allows the opposition multiple second chances, which inherently increases scoring opportunities for teams with strong interior presence like Minnesota. In summary, this is a nightmare setup for Memphis — and the Timberwolves are certainly capable of taking advantage. The best part about laying this amount of points is that we don’t need a blowout — even when Minnesota can easily achieve that kind of a beatdown. We simply need the T-Wolves to be the better side and play a full 4 quarters. If they do, this ticket should cash without too much trouble.

Timberwolves vs Grizzlies prediction: Minnesota -7.5 (-110) available at time of publishing. Playable at that number.
