Minnesota was able to win Game 4 despite some sloppy play late, and the Timberwolves are 4-1 at home in these playoffs. The Spurs did get a road victory in Game 3 and have plenty of momentum after a blowout win in Game 5, but who doesn&#8217;t want to see a Game 7 in this series? If you&#8217;re more comfortable betting on the spread, the Timberwolves cover as 5.5-point underdogs in 61% of model simulations.<\/p>\n<p>Under 218.5<\/p>\n<p>The Under hits in 63.4% of model simulations and it&#8217;s a bit surprising to see this recommendation as these teams have gone Over this line in each of the last four games. Game 1 was a defensive struggle and both teams shot the ball poorly but these offenses have started to figure some things out. However, the Timberwolves could put down the clamps more effectively at home. On the season, San Antonio and Minnesota are both 42-51 to the Over.<\/p>\n<p>Rudy Gobert Over 15.5 points + rebounds<\/p>\n<p>A lot has been made of the matchup between Gobert and <a class=\"Annotation-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cbssports.com\/nba\/players\/29005036\/victor-wembanyama\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Victor Wembanyama<\/a>, given the two have a close relationship from their time in France. The Timberwolves big man has been ineffective on the road, but he has played better behind the home crowd. Gobert has gone Over this particular line in Games 3 and 4, and he&#8217;s coming off a disastrous showing in Game 5 so he&#8217;ll want to bounce back. The SportsLine props model has him at 20.3 points + rebounds on Friday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Imagn Images The San Antonio Spurs can advance to the Western Conference Finals on Friday, May 15 when&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":735134,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[3782],"tags":[7,212,187,372,307,152,3954,6,8889,24770,56366,9199,11334,4708,12757,373,90236,474,91026,90157,91027,90422,91028,308,693],"class_list":{"0":"post-735133","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-minnesota-timberwolves","8":"tag-basketball","9":"tag-betting","10":"tag-denver-nuggets","11":"tag-donte-divincenzo","12":"tag-minnesota","13":"tag-minnesota-timberwolves","14":"tag-minnesotatimberwolves","15":"tag-nba","16":"tag-nba-injury-report","17":"tag-nba-odds","18":"tag-nba-parlay","19":"tag-nba-picks","20":"tag-nba-player-props","21":"tag-nba-predictions","22":"tag-nba-sgp","23":"tag-rudy-gobert","24":"tag-rudy-gobert-player-props","25":"tag-san-antonio-spurs","26":"tag-spurs-timberwolves-game-6","27":"tag-spurs-timberwolves-odds","28":"tag-spurs-timberwolves-parlay","29":"tag-spurs-timberwolves-picks","30":"tag-spurs-timberwolves-sgp","31":"tag-timberwolves","32":"tag-victor-wembanyama"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nba\/116579370504925281","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/735133","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=735133"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/735133\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/735134"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=735133"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=735133"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=735133"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
