During this losing streak Washington is last in offensive efficiency with 97 points per 100 possessions and near the bottom defensively. Brooklyn with Harden are second in offensive efficiency with 119 points per 100 possessions. Both teams play fast so more possession for more points out the Nets over their season average.

Cleveland Cavaliers vs. Minnesota Timberwolves NBA Pick Prediction 1/31/2021
Cavaliers at Timberwolves—NBA pick is Cleveland Cavaliers and Minnesota Timberwolves to play over the total of 219 points. With Collin Sexton and Andre Drummond in the lineup together we have seen a surge offensively by this team but the defense is lacking. They did stub their toe at the Knicks but New York sits third in defensive efficiency. Timberwolves are a poor defensive team. Past five games they are allowing 48% shooting and 119 points. Cavaliers past five games are allowing 49% shooting. Play Cleveland and Minnesota over 219.
