Rudy Gobert will clean up the glass, per our Pacers vs Timberwolves predictions.
Even if the Pacers were at 100%, Rudy Gobert would be a fine candidate to clear his rebounding prop. But they're not, so the Timberwolves center has a clear path to double-digit boards. The Minnesota Timberwolves are peaking just in time for a postseason charge, and they’ll put their eight-game win streak on the line tonight against the banged-up Indiana Pacers.
Indiana will be without Pascal Siakam — and possibly Tyrese Haliburton and Myles Turner too — so my Pacers vs Timberwolves predictions favor a Minnesota team putting pressure on those above it in the West.highlights, but it’s worth noting that the defense has had standout performances, too. Minnesota has held four of its last eight opponents to 104 points or fewer.has been a big part of that stingy run, and I’m wagering on another productive day for the Frenchman on the glass. The uptick began last month for Gobert, who averaged 12.4 rebounds per game in February, and he’s finished with at least 10 in eight of his last 11 games.offense that’s at its best in a run-and-gun tempo — and more Indiana possessions mean more work for Gobert, who had 14 boards in his last outing against the Pacers. He should feast against the visitors’ depleted frontcourt, and the Over on 9.5 rebounds offers real value. Even with Pascal Siakam and Myles Turner available, Indiana was outrebounded 45-32 by the Milwaukee Bucks on Saturday, so this is a real weakness for the visitors, who may be forced to play some smaller lineups here. With Minnesota’s strong perimeter defense, Gobert can camp out in the paint, and I expect him to gobble up misses on both ends of the floor. He’s averaging 3.5 offensive rebounds per game, so don’t be surprised if he’s active off the Wolves’ 3-point barrage too. Most of all, though, this is a bet on the hosts’ defense showing up and stifling an Indiana team that’s rarely as dangerous when Haliburton is sidelined or limited.Given the teams’ respective records, the 7.5 line might seem a little high here at first glance, but the Wolves arrive with a clean bill of health and they’re 6-2 against the spread in their last eight. In contrast, the Pacers could be missing four of their five starters and haven’t covered the spread in any of their past six contests. The head-to-head trends tell a similar story, with Minnesota winning the last six meetings and covering the spread in five of those matchups, and I’m laying the points with the hosts here, even on the second night of a back-to-back set.points prop. He’s gone past this 11.5 number in seven of his last nine games, and he’s shooting 49% from 3-point range in March.set to return from a rest day, I see DiVincenzo getting enough clean looks against an Indiana defense that gave up 126 points to the Bucks last time out. He’s attempted at least eight 3-pointers in five of his last nine games.Take advantage of the early win payout at bet365, where any pre-game NBA moneyline bet getsThe Wolves are 20-14 at Target Center this season and have won four in a row at home. The Pacers have dropped five of their past six road games and are just 16-19 SU on their travels this year. While the Under is 7-3 in Indiana’s last 10 games, the visitors rank in the Top 10 in points per game and field-goal percentage.: Our team of experts has thoroughly researched and handpicked each product that appears on our website.
