Mavericks vs Timberwolves Preview

Dallas will travel to Minnesota on Friday for a battle versus the Timberwolves. For the latest NBA betting trends and NBA free picks on Friday’s game, check out our Mavericks vs Timberwolves preview below.

Timberwolves Looking To Bounce Back

Although the Minnesota Timberwolves have been able to win seven of their last 10 games, they’re going to be coming into this one on a two-game losing streak. They ended up losing to the Phoenix Suns in a close game on Wednesday, as Phoenix was able to take over in the fourth quarter and walk away with a nine-point win.

Nobody on the Timberwolves finished that game with 20 points, but they did have seven players in double figures.

On the season, Minnesota has the eighth rated net rating, the sixth rated offensive rating, and the 13th rated defensive rating.

Dallas Looking For Third Win In A Row

The Dallas Mavericks have had a consistent season, and they’ve been able to continue that play in the past few weeks. Dallas is going to be coming into this one also winning seven of their last 10 games, but they’ve managed to win their last two.

The Mavericks are going to be coming into this one after an impressive 110-91 win against a below-average Houston Rockets team on Wednesday. Jalen Brunson led the way for Dallas as he finished with 28 points.

On the season, Dallas has the ninth rated net rating, the 18th rated offensive rating, and the sixth rated defensive rating.

Free NBA Picks — Mavericks vs Timberwolves

For this game, I’m going to go with the Minnesota Timberwolves to win outright. These teams met earlier in the week and Dallas was able to get a win, leading me to think that it won’t happen twice in a week.

The Timberwolves are going to be coming in losing their last two games, but I don’t think that’s going to be much of an issue for them here.

Dallas also might not have Luka Doncic, and if that’s the case, I can’t see a way Minnesota loses this one.
