Our Predictions: Minnesota Timberwolves to Win
Minnesota Timberwolves and Dallas Mavericks face off in a regular season game of the 2024/25 NBA. The Wolves are looking for their third win of the season, while the Mavs are trying to overcome the fatigue of a back-to-back. The prediction is a win for the Minnesota Timberwolves, who are playing at home and are more rested. Additionally, there is an expectation that the game will not be as high-scoring as anticipated, suggesting a bet on “under 224.5 points” for the game.
Games between the Minnesota Timberwolves and Dallas Mavericks don’t usually have very high scores, and this is likely to continue in this match. After all, the Wolves tend to allow few points at the Target Center, and the Mavs don’t have very high-scoring games when playing back-to-back. Thus, the recommended bet is on the under points market.
