Minnesota Timberwolves vs Oklahoma City Thunder
February 24th 2025 | 7:00 PM EST | Paycom Center, Oklahoma City, OK
Grade A-: Oklahoma City Thunder Moneyline (-700)
The Oklahoma City Thunder, boasting a league-best 45-10 record, are on a remarkable 12-game winning streak this season. Led by MVP frontrunner Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, who is averaging 31.3 points, 6 assists, and 5.5 rebounds per game, the Thunder have been formidable, especially at home. In contrast, the Minnesota Timberwolves, standing at 31-26, have faced challenges, including the indefinite loss of guard Donte DiVincenzo due to a Grade 3 left toe sprain. Historically, the Thunder have dominated this matchup, with a 91-47 all-time regular-season record against the Timberwolves. Given OKC's current momentum and home-court advantage, betting on the Thunder's moneyline at -700 is a solid choice, though the return on investment is modest. Prediction Grade: A-
