The Over stems from a Minnesota inclination. On the second night of a back-to-back, the Timberwolves may not have the legs to be at their absolute best on defense. Last night, they finished the game on a 15-for-30 stretch from beyond the arc after opening 1-for-9. Continuing that hot shooting would also obviously help this Over approach.
