Pelicans vs Timberwolves Free NBA Parlay Picks

• Leg 1. Minnesota Timberwolves ATS -12.5

Even with Minnesota laying nearly 13 points, this has blowout written all over it. The Pelicans are running on fumes offensively, and their defense has more holes than swiss cheese – giving up 119 points per game and bleeding 3-pointers (14.7 per game). That’s just chum in the water for SG Anthony Edwards and PF Julius Randle. When you compare these two NBA teams, it’s clear – back Minnesota to cover and stomp the Pelicans.

• Leg 2. Pelicans vs Timberwolves Under 228 Points

With the total set at 228 points, I’m going with the under. Sure, the Wolves will get their points, but the Pelicans’ skeleton crew won’t do their part to push this over. I get it – the number looks tempting, but New Orleans just doesn’t have the offensive firepower. Unless Minnesota plans on dropping 200 points alone, this one’s staying low. Take my NBA expert picks on this one – the under is a lock.

• Leg 3. CJ McCollum Under 17.5 Points (-115)

The Pelicans need SG CJ McCollum to step up, but I’m not betting on it. For an NBA player prop pick tonight, I’m backing him to stay under 17.5 points. McCollum is an elite scorer, sure, but he hasn’t looked like himself – coming off just a 3-point performance in 30 minutes. Now he faces a top-six defense that won’t make life easy. Yes, he’ll get his shots, but over 17.5 points? No shot.

• Leg 4. Rudy Gobert Under 11.5 Points (-130)

His NBA DPOY odds are solid, but offensively? C Rudy Gobert is barely a factor, and I’m expecting him to finish with under 11.5 points for my next NBA player prop. With the Pelicans’ backcourt in shambles, Minnesota’s guards should feast, leaving Gobert with limited touches. He’s cleared 11 points just twice in his last five and is coming off back-to-back games under eight points.
