The Minnesota Timberwolves<\/a> (3-3) and Brooklyn Nets<\/a> (0-6) meet Monday at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. Tip is set for 7 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s<\/a> NBA odds around the Timberwolves vs. Nets odds and make our expert NBA picks and predictions<\/a> for the best bets.<\/p>\n

2024-25 season series: Timberwolves won 2-0<\/p>\n

The Timberwolves beat the Charlotte Hornets<\/a> 122-105 Saturday, covering as a 4.5-point road favorite as the Under (235.5) cashed. F Julius Randle led the way with 30 points on 12-for-19 shooting. Minnesota, which has closed as a favorite in 5 of 6 contests, is just 1-5 against the spread (ATS). It has tallied at least 110 in every game, but has had major defensive woes throughout the first week and a half.<\/p>\n

The Nets lost to the Philadelphia 76ers<\/a> 129-105 Sunday, failing to cover as a 4.5-point home underdog as the Over (233) hit. While the offense overall struggled, G Cam Thomas found his rhythm, scoring 29 points on 9-for-19 shooting. Brooklyn is the only team in the Eastern Conference that has yet to win. Despite that, it is 2-4 ATS, mainly because of its league-worst defense.<\/p>\n

Timberwolves at Nets picks and predictionsPrediction<\/p>\n

Timberwolves 123, Nets 112<\/p>\n

PASS.<\/p>\n

The Timberwolves (-350) should avoid giving the Nets (+275) their first win of the season. However, they are far too expensive to consider here.<\/p>\n

BET TIMBERWOLVES -8.5 (-110).<\/p>\n

The Timberwolves have oddly played better on the road. They are 2-1 straight up and 1-1 ATS as a favorite of 4 or more points. Minnesota is also a top-10 team in turnover rate (14.6%) and effective field goal percentage (60.1%).<\/p>\n

For the Nets, they just haven’t tried hard enough defensively to think they can keep this close. They are last in defensive rating and in the bottom 5 in defensive rebounding rate. Brooklyn has a weak defense and doesn’t keep opponents off the board. That is not a recipe for success.<\/p>\n

Expect a giant Minnesota lineup to dominate so take TIMBERWOLVES -8.5 (-110).<\/p>\n

BET OVER 229.5 (-110).<\/p>\n

Neither team plays at a fast tempo, but more to the point, neither side has defended well this season. The Timberwolves are 4-2 O\/U and have allowed at least 110 points in 5 games.<\/p>\n

The Nets are 4-2 O\/U and have allowed at least 129 points 4 times through just 6 contests. Considering those woes, expect an abundance of scoring and back OVER 229.5 (-110).<\/p>\n
