The Spurs have made a sublime start to the season, going 3-1 over their first four games of the season. After a tough loss against the Hornets on opening night, the Spurs have gone on a three-game win streak, with their current opponents, the Timberwolves, being the latest of their victims. Keldon Johnson and Devin Vassell have been the leading scorers for the Spurs this season, placing them in the top 10 for the best offenses in the NBA.
Keldon Johnson is having a career-high season across all metrics thus far, being one of the major reasons for the Spurs’ success this campaign. He is averaging career-high points (20.5), assists (3.5), and rebounds (6.3) this season, with a true shooting% of 54.2.
One concerning factor in his play this season has been his Free Throw efficiency, only making 60% of the FTs he has attempted this season. Devin Vassell has also shouldered much of the offensive responsibility, averaging nearly 20 points per game this season.

As for the Spurs, the deadly forward duo of Anthony Edwards and Karl-Anthony Towns has been on a tear this season. Towns is the leading scorer for the Timberwolves this campaign, averaging 20.3-8-5 this season, while Edwards is at a close second with 20- 8.5- 3.5 splits.
The addition of Rudy Gobert has bolstered their defense massively, while also adding much-needed offensive help. Their season overall hasn’t kicked off to the best of starts going 2-2 and are coming into this fixture on the back of a loss against the same opponents in their last game.

San Antonio Spurs vs Minnesota Timberwolves Match Details
Fixture: San Antonio Spurs @ Minnesota Timberwolves
Date and Time: Wednesday, October 26, 7:30 PM ET
Venue: Target Center, Minneapolis, Minnesota
San Antonio Spurs vs Minnesota Timberwolves Best Pick:
Karl-Anthony Towns is the main man for the Timberwolves. After Rudy Gobert’s arrival, Towns has shifted over to his preferred Power Forward role in the side and has the freedom to go even more aggressive in the offense.
He is already averaging around 20 points a game and the overall squad isn’t even set. Come the end of the season, we could be seeing big numbers by KAT.
Karl-Anthony Towns; Points: Over 21.5 (-130)
San Antonio Spurs vs Minnesota Timberwolves Final Prediction:
On paper, this contest favors the Timberwolves. Their supposed big-4 have all started the season well and are looking for rhythm to carry forward into the rest of the season.
Although the Spurs have started the season really well, it almost looks like a run asking to be over. They just don’t have a deep enough squad to go the distance and should falter in this game as well.
Minnesota Timberwolves: -9 (-109)
