Minnesota Timberwolves vs Houston Rockets Prediction & Betting Tips - NBA

 by Joseph King | in NBA Predictions

A Western Conference clash in the NBA on Sunday evening sees the second-place Minnesota Timberwolves hosting the 11th-placed Houston Rockets. The Timberwolves will be hoping to claim sole ownership of the top spot in the West as they are currently tied with OKC for the best record in the conference. Minnesota is coming off a disappointing 108-106 home loss to the Orlando Magic in which they blew an eight point lead heading into the fourth quarter. The defeat snapped a two-game winning streak and moved the TWolves record to 34-15 on the season. It was also only Minnesota’s fifth defeat at the Target Center this season with the team winning 18 of their 23 games in front of the home crowd. They’ll have this one at home as well where they are giving up an average of just 103.8 points per game (the best defensive record in the NBA).

The Rockets continue battling for a play-in tournament spot as they currently sit 11th with a 23-25 record. This has them even with 10th-place Utah and trailing eighth-placed Dallas by three games. Houston’s last outing resulted in an encouraging 135-106 home victory over the Toronto Raptors. They’ll now attempt to win their second straight game for the first time in over a month as they’ve struggled to string together consistent results over the past few weeks. The story of Houston’s season has been the split in their home vs away results. They’ve been excellent at the Toyota Center, where they’ve posted a 18-9 record. However, taking their game to the road sees the Rockets’ record drop to an ugly 5-16. Houston has managed just one win in their last five away games, which came across the lowly Charlotte Hornets who have just 10 wins on the year.

Our Minnesota Timberwolves vs Houston Rockets Prediction

The Timberwolves easily handled the Rockets in Houston just one month ago and shouldn't have much trouble with the action now taking place in Minnesota. Houston is one of the league's better defensive teams although their ability on that side of the ball takes a significant hit when they play on the road, giving up 116.5 points per game on average compared to just 109.1 at home. We have this number at closer to -8.5 so there is some value in backing the hosts. Our Minnesota Timberwolves vs Houston Rockets prediction is for the Timberwolves -7.
