Philadelphia 76ers (8-7) vs Minnesota Timberwolves (7-8)
Saturday, November 19, 2022 at 7:30 pm
The 76ers were beneficiaries of fantastic three-point shooting themselves and miserable FT shooting from Giannis and the Bucks last night. The 76ers won 110-102, so only by eight points, despite Milwaukee shooting sub-40% from the FT line! Giannis himself was 4-15 from the charity stripe and it does not matter if you are an NBA, college, or high school team; shooting 38% from the line will always result in a loss. I think the T-Wolves can exploit a bad 76ers defense here and Minnesota certainly has the weapons to do so. The 76ers are on a back-to-back, got rather lucky last night, and now face a rested T-Wolves team that is starting to heat up after two road wins. I like the T-Wolves on the ML here.
