Minnesota Timberwolves Odds | Betting Guide With Spread, Moneyline, Total, Futures

The Minnesota Timberwolves have been to the Western Conference Finals in back-to-back seasons, but have been blown out both times. Getting over that hump is a top priority, with the NBA Finals being the clear goal for the Wolves.

One of the future faces of the NBA, Anthony Edwards, is the needle-mover for Minnesota. When he's playing well, this group is difficult to beat. As the Timberwolves continue building around him, the window of contention should be open for a while.

How to Bet on the Timberwolves

Moneyline

Moneyline is the sports betting lingo for picking the straight-up winner with no points involved. Here is a detailed explanation of what is a moneyline.

To give you a better idea of how a moneyline bet works, let's look back at the recent game between the Timberwolves and Trailblazers.

• Timberwolves -2000
• Trail Blazers +1000

Even though these odds are larger than a typical NBA game, the numbers show Minnesota took the court as a heavy favorite as a result of having the "-" in front of their number. The Trail Blazers were the underdogs based on the "+" symbol. Before we touch on how this game played out, a $100 bet on the Timberwolves to win would earn the bettor a $5 profit on top of the $100 being returned.

Now, if you were to put that same $100 on Portland to win, the payout would be $1,000 plus the $100 bet back. This is the perfect example of how lopsided odds are never guaranteed winners as the Trail Blazers won the game, 107-105.

Point Spread

Using the same game, here are what is what the point spread looked like prior to tip:

Timberwolves -19.5 (-110)

Trail Blazers +19.5 (-110)

What these numbers show us is the sportsbooks saw this game being a double-digit blowout win for Minnesota. And it made sense with Portland being battered by injuries and eliminated from the postseason while Minnesota was trying to secure a playoff seed. Anybody who bet Minnesota "-19.5" needed the team to win by at least 20 points to cash their tickets.

Others said "I am not comfortable laying that many points" and decided to take Portland +19.5 instead. They enjoyed much better result. The -110 right next to the odds is the "vig" or how sportsbooks make money. So no matter which side of this NBA game you decide to play, this is essentially the small fee for placing the bet. The payout for a $100 bet on the Trail Blazers +19.5 was $190.91 (win $90.91 plus your initial $100 bet).

Point Total (Over/Under)

With a total points wager, you're betting on the final score of a game or match. This is often referred to as the an over under. Sportsbooks set lines for every game, and you must decide which side of that number the total will land. Say the Timberwolves are playing the Brooklyn Nets and the total is set at 215 points, and the final score ends up being 110-108 for 218 points, then over bettors would win. However, if the final score is 105-103 or 208 points, then the under would win.

Live Betting

Unlike horse racing where all bets must be made prior to post time, there are endless betting opportunities once a NBA game tips off. You will notice the point spread and moneyline shift throughout the game. Say the T-Wolves open a 3.5-favorite. As the second half begins, Minnesota is trailing by 12 points and is suddenly an underdog. If you think the team will regain the momentum and turn things around, this is an alternative strategy, especially if those pregame bets are not looking good. Instead of laying 3.5 points, the you might be able to find the Timberwolves +5.5. There is usually a very small window to take advantage of the line shift so don't spend too much time pondering the decision.

The same theory can be applied to the in-game moneyline. Many bettors are not going to touch a moneyline of -1000 or higher due to the amount of money required to make a significant profit. However, if that unattractive line significantly drops, it might be a live betting opportunity. This method is considered "hedging" or a way to recover a potential losing bet placed before tip-off.

These are the simple live betting opportunities. Who will score the next basket or what will the result of the next play be are just a couple of other possibilities. The advantage with many in-game bets is you will not need to wait until the game is over to cash that winning ticket.

Parlays and Teasers

Parlays and Teasers are a way to connect multiple different bets together with the potential for a larger payout. However, the catch is each selection or leg of your bet must be a winner. If there are several NBA games you are looking to bet, a parlay is the way to do it. There can be as few as two legs or as many as 10 or more. The possibilities are endless and it can be a combination of the different bets mentioned above.

Here is one example of a potential parlay going with the moneyline in three different games (the odds will jump as a result of the multiple legs):

• Timberwolves over Nets -110
• Celtics over 76ers +120
• Kings over Pelicans +140

The NBA odds for this 3-leg parlay jump to +908. This means if you were to wager $25 on this three-team parlay and all of the legs end up being winners, the total payout would be $252 - $227 win plus the initial $25 bet is returned. But if the 76ers lost to the Celtics while the Timberwolves and Kings win, you would lose.

Teasers give you the option of moving the point spread in a direction that is more favorable to you as a bettor. The catch is sportsbooks charge a small fee to move that line. Say Minnesota is a pick 'em versus the Nets. After blowing the game against Portland, you might prefer taking Minnesota +2.5 points. The alternative spreads can be found when clicking on a specific game. The point spread may have odds of -115, but if you decide to buy the extra 2.5 points, the odds might move to -165. However, if you're extremely confident the T-Wolves are going to blow out the Nets, another option is going in the opposite direction and bet Minnesota -2.5. This shifts the odds in the neighborhood of +100 or even money.

Futures

Futures are exactly what they sound like - betting on a regular season champion or award months before the winner is decided. This could be anything from Minnesota regular-season win total to Gobert winning the NBA Defensive Player of the Year. Betting on which team will win the NBA finals also falls under this category. The Timberwolves odds to make the NBA playoffs falls under the futures category as well.

Timberwolves History

The Minnesota Timberwolves made their NBA debut prior to the 1989-90 season as an expansion team. They joined the Western Conference while the Orlando Magic was added to the Eastern Conference. The team's first win came against the Philadelphia 76ers. However, the T-Wolves have yet to bring an NBA Championship to the Twin Cities. Through the 2021-22 season, Minnesota has made the postseason 10 times over 34 seasons. Nine of those times they were eliminated in the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

The 2003-04 season is regarded as the best in Timberwolves history as they finished the regular season with a 58-24 record and made the Western Conference finals. Minnesota lost the series 4-2 to a Los Angeles Lakers team that included Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O'Neal. The Minnesota Timberwolves were led by Kevin Garnett, arguably one of the best all-time players in league history. KG's 19,201 points in a Timberwolves uniform puts him No. 1 on the team's all-time scoring list. Garnett was a member of the 2020 Basketball Hall of Fame class.

In April 2021, former MLB star Alex Rodriguez and Marc Lore, Walmart's former e-commerce CEO, purchased the Timberwolves. They now own 40% of the team.

The Timberwolves are coming off one of their best seasons in franchise history. They finished the regular season with a 56-26 record and advanced to the Western Conference Finals.
