Prediction: Oklahoma City Thunder VS Minnesota Timberwolves 2025-05-26
The Oklahoma City Thunder, led by the newly minted NBA MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, are looking to take a commanding 3-0 lead over the Minnesota Timberwolves in the Western Conference Finals. The Timberwolves, on the other hand, are desperate to get their first win and avoid a daunting 0-3 deficit.
The Thunder's balanced attack and defensive prowess have given them the edge so far, and I don't see that changing in Game 3. The Timberwolves' offense has been inconsistent, and their bench has underperformed, with key players like Rudy Gobert and Julius Randle failing to make significant impacts.
The odds are in favor of the Thunder, with most bookmakers listing them as 3-point favorites. I'm going to take it a step further and predict that the Thunder will win by more than 3 points. My best bet is on the Oklahoma City Thunder -3.0, with a price of 1.91 at BetRivers.
Don't get me wrong, the Timberwolves have a talented roster, but they just can't seem to get it together. And with the Thunder's momentum and Gilgeous-Alexander's MVP form, I think they'll take care of business on the road.
So, if you're looking to make some money, put it on the Thunder to cover the spread. And if you're a Timberwolves fan, well, you might want to start preparing for a long summer.
