Phoenix Suns vs. Minnesota Timberwolves Pick
I will take the points with the dog today.
This should be a back-and-forth game that will come down to the last couple of possessions.
That type of game favors the Suns as they have the better playmakers.
The Suns will give all they have today in a playoff-like atmosphere.
Let’s close a massive season with a win!
