Minnesota Timberwolves vs. Philadelphia 76ers Picks and Prediction: Rested Philly Gets a Shorthanded Minnesota Squad on the Back Half

The Minnesota Timberwolves (46-30) arrive in Philadelphia tonight on the second night of a back-to-back, with Anthony Edwards listed as questionable due to a right knee injury after sitting out Thursday's 113-108 loss in Detroit. The Philadelphia 76ers (42-34) are home, rested, and getting Joel Embiid back: he upgraded from doubtful to probable after an illness that cost him Wednesday's blowout win over Washington. Philadelphia is a -2 to -2.5 home favorite with the total set at 233.5, and with six games left in the regular season, the Sixers are pushing to hold their sixth seed and skip the Play-In entirely.
