Minnesota Timberwolves vs. Los Angeles Clippers Preview

While the Minnesota Timberwolves are without Karl-Anthony Towns due to injury, the Los Angeles Clippers are expected to get back the likes of Kawhi Leonard and Paul George. That gives their overall production an instant boost as opposing defenses can no longer just fixate their coverage on James Harden, now having to spread thin and leaving the middle wide open for them to pick apart.

That bodes especially well against a Timberwolves squad that has now been running small after the injury to Karl-Anthony Towns. Minnesota now anchors Rudy Gobert at the five while running four out. That puts added stress on Gobert against slashing guards, having to make a decision to creep out to help force the ball out of the driver's hands or anchor at the rim and dare them to take a mid-range.

That spells potential disaster against the Clippers as Harden, Leonard, and George are all capable of stopping and popping for a high-quality mid-range or attack the rim should Gobert creep out too far. Factor in the Clippers holding opposing offenses to just 36.1% from deep, and that will force Minnesota to try and beat them in the interior as an undersized unit. Take the Clippers at no higher than -8 as they bounce back in a big way with their star players back in the lineup.

Our Pick: Clippers -6.5 (-110) at FanDuel Sportsbook
