Tom Oldfield<\/a> 22+ years betting experience<\/p>\n \n Updated: \u2022 4 min read<\/p>\n Even if Anthony Edwards returns to the Timberwolves’ lineup tonight, Donte DiVincenzo will pile up the points against a leaky and unmotivated Mavericks defense.<\/p>\n Photo By – Reuters Connect. Minnesota Timberwolves guard Donte DiVincenzo (0) shoots over Detroit Pistons forward Ronald Holland II (5).<\/p>\n Just when the Minnesota Timberwolves should be tuning up for a postseason run, injuries have ripped through their backcourt, and it\u2019s going to take a \u201cnext man up\u201d mentality as they host the Dallas Mavericks. \u00a0<\/p>\n Anthony Edwards has missed six straight, and he\u2019s joined on the injury report by Jaden McDaniels and Ayo Dosunmu, so my Timberwolves vs. Mavericks predictions pivot to a Minnesota sharpshooter who\u2019s had an even brighter green light during this short-handed stretch.<\/p>\n Check out my NBA picks<\/a> for this March 30 matchup.<\/p>\n Timberwolves vs Mavericks prediction Donte DiVincenzo<\/a> rarely has to be asked twice when it comes to launching 3-pointers, and the Minnesota Timberwolves<\/a> have needed his volume shooting more than ever over the past few weeks. DiVincenzo has responded with 39 points across his last two outings, while making 10 of his 26 attempts from beyond the arc.<\/p>\n Though Anthony Edwards and Ayo Dosunmu could return tonight to beef up Chris Finch\u2019s backcourt, that shouldn\u2019t drastically alter the script for DiVincenzo, and I\u2019m counting on the recent extra reps translating to another Over on his points prop.<\/p>\n DiVincenzo is attempting almost eight 3-pointers a game this season, but don\u2019t be surprised if he ends up with double-digit shots from downtown for the fourth time in his past five contests.<\/p>\n Most of all, Minnesota is desperate for spacing, and that makes DiVincenzo a lock for steady minutes. With Edwards sidelined, the visitors have been held below 105 points in three of their last four games, but the Dallas Mavericks<\/a>\u2019 defense could be the perfect medicine to get the T-Wolves firing again.<\/p>\n Dallas has given up 135+ points in four of its past five matchups en route to the draft lottery, and the Nuggets shot 56% from the field against Cooper Flagg & Co. last Wednesday. With the Mavs going through the motions, sign me up for a splashy effort from DiVincenzo tonight.<\/p>\n Enjoying Covers content? Add us as a preferred source on your Google account If DiVincenzo gives the offense a jolt, Rudy Gobert<\/a> can carry Minnesota on the other end of the floor. The Frenchman has cashed this Over in three of his last four games to keep the Wolves\u2019 defense afloat, and he\u2019s got a natural assignment around the rim against Daniel Gafford.<\/p>\n Minnesota has won five in a row against Dallas, so I\u2019m riding with the visitors, who should come out with urgency after being blown out at home over the weekend. The prospect of Ant getting back on the court is enticing, but the Wolves have enough talent to grind out a win regardless.<\/p>\n Timberwolves vs Mavericks SGP<\/p>\n Donte DiVincenzo Over 13.5 points Our “from downtown” SGP: Championship Remix<\/p>\n I\u2019m reuniting championship teammates in this SGP, with two sweet-shooting former Bucks.<\/p>\n
