Los Angeles Clippers vs Minnesota Timberwolves Odds: Clippers Given a 43% Chance of Upsetting Minnesota
After a trip to the Western Conference Final last year, the Clippers had high expectations for this year. Paul George and Norman Powell led the way for this team in scoring on their way to a 42-40 season that got them eighth in the Western Conference.
On the other side, you have Minnesota who hasn't been to the playoffs since 2018 and has just one playoff appearance since 2004. It would be a huge deal if they were able to win this game and advance tonight. Will they be able to do it? Let's look at the Los Angeles Clippers vs Minnesota Timberwolves odds.

Los Angeles Clippers vs Minnesota Timberwolves Moneyline
| Team | ML | Handle% | Bets% |
|---|---|---|---|
| Clippers | +130 | 54% | 50% |
| Timberwolves | -150 | 46% | 50% |
Minnesota is a slight favorite at home in this one and the bets are split right down the middle at 50%. It should be a tight back and forth style of game so if you like the underdog, a playo on the Clippers at +130 (Bet $100 to win $130) might be the move for you. 54% of the handle is on the underdog Clippers to win outright.

Los Angeles Clippers vs Minnesota Timberwolves Spread
| Team | Spread | Handle% | Bets% |
|---|---|---|---|
| Clippers | +3 | 45% | 52% |
| Timberwolves | -3 | 56% | 48% |
Now, this is interesting. The Timberwolves at -3 have more of the handle despite the Clippers having more of the handle on the moneyline. I guess the logic is you might as well take them outright if with a spread so short. The Timberwolves have been pretty good against the spread this year covering 52.5% of the time while the Clippers covered just 49.4% during the regular season.
Los Angeles Clippers vs Minnesota Timberwolves Total
| O/U | Total | Handle% | Bets% |
|---|---|---|---|
| Over | 230.5 | 60% | 69% |
| Under | 230.5 | 40% | 31% |
You weren't possibly thinking about betting the under here, were you? Minnesota is the best team in the league at hitting over at 61% to the over. The Clippers were 39-41-2, so obviously just under 50% but still not awful numbers. In the four games, these two teams played they combined for 241, 188, 231, and 226. I feel pretty confident that this one gets to the over in what projects to be a back and forth game.
