Phoenix Suns vs Minnesota Timberwolves Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 12/08/25

Over the weekend we saw just how much Devin Booker means to the Phoenix Suns as they lost 117-98 at Houston. It was a struggle offensively with Dillon Brooks scoring 23 points and just two other starters scoring in double figures. Ball movement was another issue with the Suns accumulating just 14 assists on the night, that type of effort won’t get them far. Things don’t get any easier on Monday as they visit Minnesota, with Brooks now also being on the injury report as a game time decision. If he isn’t able to play, the Suns could have real issues once again reaching the century mark here.

Minnesota has been on a roll winning 5 in a row, the schedule has been kind to them over the past 3 games as they beat the Pelicans twice and the Clippers on Saturday. This is one of the healthiest teams in the league right now, which is always a good thing. Offensively they’re 4th best in efficiency over those 5 games, averaging 124.4 points per 100 possessions. This has been a match-up dominated by the T’Wolves over the years as they’ve won 8 of 10 meetings, covering 7 times and outscoring the Suns by 8.4 points per game.

The injury situation isn’t good in Phoenix, if both Brooks and Booker are out they are doomed here. Anthony Edwards has hit a bit of a rough stretch in the last two games, but a bounce back performance could happen here. He’s scored 40+ in 2 of 3 meetings against this team, the last time these two played Minnesota let an 8-point lead slip away with a minute to go. I’m backing them to get revenge and cover here.
