The Minnesota Timberwolves and the Golden State Warriors find themselves involved in a tight race for the last automatic playoff position. The hosts tonight find themselves a game and a half ahead. A loss for them tonight would drag them right back into the free-for-all happening in the play-in spots. With Karl-Anthony Towns coming back into the mix for the Timberwolves recently, they will be confident they can make a late season run. You can catch tonight’s game on NBA TV.

Kevon Looney to record 12+ rebounds (+195)
The Golden State Warriors center will be very needed tonight. Going up against the size of the Minnesota Timberwolves frontline, Kevon Looney should see no shortage of minutes. While the status of Karl-Anthony Towns remains questionable, Rudy Gobert is bound to take to the floor. While a dominant rebounder himself, he is bound to keep the battle in the paint between the pair. He has little to no floor spacing ability and is in the top 10 in the league in offensive rebounds per game. Looney should be able to focus on keeping him off the glass here.
In 3 games against the Timberwolves this season, he is averaging 11 rebounds per game. He should be able to improve on that here. Over the last 10 games, these sides have been playing up tempo basketball. They have ranked 5th and 12th in the league in pace respectively. With the increased number of possessions, there should be additional rebounds for the center to chase down. Back him to turn that into a big rebounding night here.

Stephen Curry 5+ made threes (+105)
Stephen Curry has taken on the Timberwolves twice this season, knocking down a 4 and 5 3-pointers in those games, respectively. Over the last 10 games, the Minnesota Timberwolves are 29th in the league in opponent 3-point percentage. With Curry averaging 11.5 3-point attempts against the Timberwolves, he should be able to convert these attempts with efficiency here. With the Timberwolves using 2 bigs, neither of which is great in the open floor, Curry should be able to create space. In pick and roll situations, the bigs do not have the foot speed to jump out to Curry and recover in time. If they go under screens here, the Warriors superstar should punish them from deep.
