The Clippers are 4-10 ATS in the last 14 games overall, 1-5 ATS in the last 6 games against teams from the Western Conference and 2-5 ATS in the last 7 games against teams from the Northwest Division.

Prediction and Conclusion

Both teams are close to the top of the Western Conference, and this game may have a major impact on the final standings. The Timberwolves had won four straight against the Clippers before the team from LA won the last one 89-88. Karl-Anthony Towns is out for the Wolves, which will be a problem to a certain point, but as long as Anthony Edwards plays the way he does this season, the Wolves can beat anybody in the league. It is a fact that the Clippers have an excellent roster, but Minnesota will stay close in this one and cover the +7-point spread.
