The Minnesota Timberwolves are back over .500 in the 2025-26 season, and they\u2019ll take on a struggling Sacramento Kings on Sunday.<\/p>\n
The Kings are just 3-6 straight up and 4-5 against the spread through nine games. They also rank in the bottom 10 in the league in offensive rating, defensive rating and net rating.<\/p>\n
Anthony Edwards (hamstring) is back in action for the Wolves, and they rebounded from a loss to the New York Knicks by beating the Utah Jazz by 40 \u2013 137-97 \u2013 in their last game.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Oddsmakers have the Wolves favored on the road on Sunday, but can they cover?<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s dive into the odds, my favorite prop bet and a prediction for Sunday\u2019s matchup.\u00a0<\/p>\n

After a 1-for-4 day from deep in a 40-point win over the Utah Jazz, I expect DiVincenzo to have a lot more volume on the road against the Sacramento Kings on Sunday.<\/p>\n DiVincenzo has at least seven 3-point attempts in six of his nine games, and he took 12, 13 and 11 3-pointers in his first three games of November, making at least five shots from deep in each game.\u00a0<\/p>\n He\u2019s worth a look against a Kings team that is 15th in the league in opponent 3-point percentage this season.\u00a0<\/p>\n The Timberwolves are one of the best OVER teams in the NBA right now, hitting it in seven of their nine games, and the Kings aren\u2019t far behind, going OVER in six of nine games.<\/p>\n These two teams profile perfectly as OVER squads because of weak defenses and offenses that can put up big numbers when they\u2019re clicking.<\/p>\n Minnesota is fifth in offensive rating and 22nd in defensive rating while the Kings are 24th in offense and 26th in defense this season. I don\u2019t mind betting on the Wolves to cover here either, but they are pretty big road favorites for a team with a bottom-10 defense.\u00a0<\/p>\n Plus, the Kings are a top-10 team in pace this season and should have Zach LaVine, DeMar DeRozan and potentially Domantas Sabonis (questionable) all in action on Sunday.<\/p>\n I\u2019ll bet on a high-scoring affair to close Sunday\u2019s NBA action.\u00a0<\/p>\n Pick: OVER 237.5 (-112 at DraftKings)<\/a><\/p>\n Odds refresh periodically and are subject to change.<\/p>\n If you or someone you know has a gambling problem and wants help, call 1-800-GAMBLER.<\/p>\n Find Peter Dewey’s\u00a0NBA betting record here<\/a>\u00a0(futures included).
