If you thought the Utah Jazz\u2019s overall record was bad, their mark against division rivals is even worse \u2013 and it\u2019s not likely to get any better tonight against the Minnesota Timberwolves.<\/p>\n

This feels like a hopeless task for a Utah team that\u2019s 1-11 against the rest of the Northwest Division and firmly in full tank mode, but my Jazz vs Timberwolves predictions target one of the visitors\u2019 youngsters getting a chance in the spotlight.<\/p>\n

Check on my NBA picks<\/a> for this clash on Wednesday, March 18.<\/p>\n

Jazz vs Timberwolves predictionJazz vs Timberwolves best bet: Cody Williams Over 20.5 points + rebounds + assists (-115)<\/p>\n

The Utah Jazz<\/a> don\u2019t seem focused on boosting their win total, but the coming weeks give them a chance to evaluate their roster. That\u2019s good news for Cody Williams<\/a>, who has played 36+ minutes in six straight games, hitting this combo Over in five of them.<\/p>\n

Williams posted an eye-popping 34-7-7 stat line on Sunday and should be active again as Utah navigates games without Lauri Markkanen<\/a> and Keyonte George<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Even though the Minnesota Timberwolves<\/a> can be elite defensively, Williams doesn\u2019t need to match his season averages to make this prop a winner.<\/p>\n

Jazz vs Timberwolves same-game parlay<\/p>\n

Even on the second night of a back-to-back set, the T-Wolves have the defensive studs to keep Utah at bay, but the offense will largely be in the hands of Julius Randle<\/a> and Donte DiVincenzo<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Randle is coming off back-to-back 32-point outings, and I expect DiVincenzo to bounce back from last night\u2019s 0-for-8 dud, as he boasts a 39% mark from downtown.<\/p>\n

Jazz vs Timberwolves SGP<\/p>\n

Julius Randle Over 25.5 points<\/p>\n

Donte DiVincenzo Over 14.5 points<\/p>\n

Our “from downtown” SGP: Stifle Tower<\/p>\n

No one needs to tell the Jazz about Rudy Gobert<\/a>\u2019s impact.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This SGP jumps on the Frenchman\u2019s presence around the rim at both ends of the floor, and he\u2019s coming off a monster effort last night, finishing with 19 rebounds and four blocks.<\/p>\n

Naz Reid<\/a>\u2019s absence should also mean an uptick in minutes for Gobert.<\/p>\n

Rudy Gobert Over 12.5 points<\/p>\n

Rudy Gobert Over 13.5 rebounds<\/p>\n
