1.88Tip and bets
Minnesota approaches the game with Utah as a clear favorite. According to bookmaker analysts, the home team will have very little chance of success. And that true. Jazz is clearly failing the season and may not even count on reaching the play-in. Timberwolves are consistently in the middle of the standings and easily crush outsiders like Jazz. Finch team with a fighting squad will have to achieve a convincing victory.
Our prediction is Minnesota victory with a handicap of (-5.5) points including overtime at 1.71
