The Golden State Warriors (19-20) face the Minnesota Timberwolves (21-18) Wednesday. Tip-off from Target Center is scheduled for 9:30 p.m. ET (ESPN). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s NBA odds around the Warriors vs. Timberwolvesodds and make our expert NBA picks and predictions for the best bets.
Season series: Warriors lead 2-1
The Warriors have dropped 4 of 5 after a 104-101 defeat at the Toronto Raptors Monday. G Stephen Curry had 26 points, 7 boards and 7 assists, while shooting 4-for-10 from downtown as Golden State came up short as a 5-point favorite with the Under (229.5) hitting. Curry hasn’t been part of the problem for the Dubs as he’s averaging 26.0 PPG and shooting 45.6% from deep this month. It’s the inadequate supporting cast they may need to augment before the trade deadline.
The Wolves have won 4 of 5 with the latest being a 120-106 win Monday at the Washington Wizards. However, they failed to cover by the hook as 14.5-point favorites with the Over (223.5) sneaking in. G Anthony Edwards broke off 41 points, 7 assists and 6 boards, while going 5-for-11 from distance. He has been wildly inconsistent this month, despite averaging 30.6 PPG. His scoring outputs in January are: 15, 53, 37, 32, 21, 15 and 41.

Warriors at Timberwolves and predictions
Prediction
Timberwolves 115, Warriors 104
Moneyline
I like the T-wolves to get it done at home, but they’re too expensive at -250.
Check out this prop, though. Take ANTHONY EDWARDS OVER 3.5 THREE-POINTERS (+110). There is an NBA 20% odds boost token in most accounts that make this +138. Edwards has gone 4-for-11, 5-for-9 and 4-for-10 from downtown in 3 games against Golden State this season.
Against the spread
BET TIMBERWOLVES -6.5 (-105). As mentioned, Ant-Man gets it going from downtown against the Warriors. The Wolves have covered in 2 of their last 4 wins, but the ones they failed to cover, they missed it by a hook.
Over/Under
The Wolves are 7-3 O/U in their last 10, but Golden State is 3-7. The Over is just 1-2 this season, but this is the smallest number thus far. It’s just small enough to cash an OVER 215.5 (-115) as Minnesota carries this number at home.
