With the narrow spread, I'm essentially picking the winner of this game SU.
The Lakers are coming off a preseason run in which they finished third from the bottom in points allowed per 100 possessions at 112.5, and even without Karl-Anthony Towns in the picture, the Timberwolves are still loaded offensively with Anthony Edwards at the helm to think they'll be locked down here.
It's been a fairly one-sided rivalry as of late with the Timberwolves winning three of four games over the Lakers in 2023-24, including eight of their last 11.
Two of Minnesota's victories last season only came by three or fewer points, mind you, and their last by 10 points on April 7 didn't have James suiting up for Los Angeles.
The OVER registered in three of the four meetings between Minnesota and Los Angeles last season, all of which had a bare minimum of a 218-point total dictated by oddsmakers.
The reigning Sixth Man of the Year winner torched the Lakers last season with three games of at least 19 points while shooting an absurd 20-of-27 from the field across two of those wins.
