Washington Wizards vs. Minnesota Timberwolves Prediction

The Washington Wizards just are not at the level they need to be to really challenge the Timberwolves right now. This should be a comfortable win for the in-form Minnesota Timberwolves, and they might even be able to rest their key players a bit in the second half.

Prediction: Expect the Timberwolves to win by 18 points.
