Minnesota Timberwolves @ Cleveland Cavaliers (7 p.m.)

Team Favored and Spread: MIN -3

Total Points: 219

The Minnesota Timberwolves will travel to the Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse to take on the Cleveland Cavaliers in a non-conference game. Point guard Darius Garland (back) is Cleveland’s best scoring option, and he has already been ruled out due to the injury. That means D’Angelo Russell should be able to control the game here.

This will be the second and final game between these teams this year, as the Cavs picked up a 123-106 road win earlier this season. Minnesota is 7-3 Against The Spread (ATS) in their last ten games played in Cleveland so go with them to cover as well as the over as these teams can put the ball in the hoop.

For the Raptors, shooting guard Fred VanVleet (knee) is listed as questionable, and small forward OG Anunoby (finger) is out here. The Raptors are 5-2 ATS in their last seven games against the Nets so go with Toronto to cover and the under to h it.
