Timberwolves vs Raptors prediction
Timberwolves vs Raptors best bet: Under 227 (-110)
This is a matchup between two Top-10 NBA defenses.
The Toronto Raptors rank fifth in defensive rating and do a particularly good job of guarding the perimeter, where the Minnesota Timberwolves spend a lot of their time. Meanwhile, Minnesota is seventh in defensive rating.
Toronto isn’t the most efficient at getting buckets, ranking 21st in offensive rating.
For Minnesota, the problem is injuries. Both Anthony Edwards and Julius Randle are a little banged up and listed as questionable tonight.

This should be an intense game, and the Under is a great way to target it.
Timberwolves vs Raptors same-game parlay
A low-scoring game bodes well for the home underdog, a role the Raptors have thrived in, winning four of the eight games outright at home when getting points this season.
With the Timberwolves’ best players banged up, bet on the Raptors to take advantage and pull out the win.
One of the players who could fuel that win is Collin Murray-Boyles. The rookie has shown flashes of his potential since becoming a regular starter, averaging 9.6 points and 7.2 rebounds over his last 12 starts.
