Minnesota is an 11.5-point favorite over Utah, with the total set at 224.5, and one betting preview favors the Under. It points to major scoring absences—Anthony Edwards and Jaren Jackson Jr. are out, while Lauri Markkanen is questionable—and Utah’s struggling offense, which has scored 100 or fewer points in three of its past four games. Minnesota’s strong defense and Utah’s tendency to stay below the total further support that outlook. The Timberwolves are also on a three-game winning streak and have covered in nine of their first 10 games, while Utah is 1-8 overall and has covered once; another preview predicts a Minnesota win.

Previews of San Antonio’s visit to Phoenix split on the spread: one favors the Spurs, citing their record covering smaller numbers and the Suns’ poor performance as underdogs, while another backs Phoenix to stay within the roughly 8-to-9-point line at home. A separate prop pick recommends Jalen Green under 1.5 made three-pointers, noting his low three-point volume even in a productive recent game.

Lakers List Luka Doncic Questionable Against Pistons

The Lakers listed Luka Doncic as questionable for Sunday’s game against the Detroit Pistons because of lower-back tightness, a day after he scored a season-high 53 points against Portland. If he cannot play, Austin Reaves is expected to shoulder more of the offense, with Quentin Grimes and Collin Sexton also likely to take on larger roles.
