Tyrese Haliburton’s points total is set at 20.5. The oddsmakers don’t favor Haliburton to go over and neither do we. He has crossed that mark twice in the past five games and is unlikely to do so Monday.

Anthony Edwards’ points total is set at 27.5. He has crossed that mark in the past three games and should be able to do so on Monday. Bet on the over.

Indiana Pacers vs Minnesota Timberwolves prediction

The oddsmakers favor the T-Wolves to get a win on the road. We, however, predict an upset as Indiana should be able to benefit from Minnesota’s tired legs and get a crucial win on the road. This should be a high-scoring game with the team total exceeding 229 points.
