The Minnesota Timberwolves have covered the spread in 5 of their last 6 meetings with the Oklahoma City Thunder. On Sunday, they will try to snag another ATS win or, hopefully, a straight-up victory over the defending NBA champion on the road.
Current Form:
The Oklahoma City Thunder will put their seven-game winning streak on the line in Sunday’s regular-season finale against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Outside of their two high-scoring wins over the Denver Nuggets, the Thunder have clamped down on the other six teams they defeated in this stretch, not allowing any of them to score more than 110 points. In his last six games, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander averages 31.5 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 8.5 assists.
The Minnesota Timberwolves found themselves in a cluster of teams jockeying for position from third to sixth spots in the Western Conference. The Wolves just snapped a three-game losing skid with a 127-117 win over the hapless Golden State Warriors. Anthony Edwards dropped 42 points in this victory.
