8:00 p.m. ET: Minnesota Timberwolves (3-5) at Memphis Grizzlies (5-4)
Spread: Grizzlies -6
Over/Under: 216.5
The Timberwolves are on a four-game losing streak when they visit the Grizzlies. The Timberwolves failed to score 100 points in three of their four losses during the unsuccessful stretch in Minneapolis, including a season-low in Friday’s 104-84 setback to the Los Angeles Clippers. Scoring issues are reflective of Minnesota’s 32% shooting from 3-point range, which ranks 26th in the NBA, and 40% shooting from the floor which is 2nd worst in the league. The Grizzlies experienced their own offensive struggles last time out, shooting a terrible 6 of 31 from 3-point range and 35.4% from the floor in a 115-87 loss at Washington on Friday. Minnesota has been without guard D’Angelo Russell the last 2 games that cut his appearance short in a Nov. 1 loss to Orlando. He remains questionable. The under is 5-1 in Grizzlies last 6 overall. The Timberwolves are 8-22 ATS in the last 30 meetings in Memphis and 5-16 ATS in the last 21 meetings. Fade the cold team in this game and roll with the Memphis Grizzlies with the Under considering both teams are struggling offensively.
