Game Analysis: Minnesota Timberwolves vs LA Lakers 10/22/24
Now, let’s get you to that free winner. The LA Lakers are hosting the Minnesota Timberwolves, and the line is set at +1.5 for the Lakers at home. The total is 219.5, and I’m going under. I know it’s the beginning of the season, and everyone wants to bet overs, but there’s no more Karl-Anthony Towns for Minnesota. They brought in Julius Randle, who hasn’t played in over a year, and they didn’t play him in any preseason games. They’re expecting him to come out and start, but I think it’s going to take him a while to build chemistry with this team.
As for McDaniels, I’ve seen him play enough to know he’s not going to score a lot of points here. Randle will need time to build up chemistry, and Conley is more of a defensive guy. The Lakers have their core players, so I’m going under this total. It’s going to go under 219.5.
