Minnesota Timberwolves vs Phoenix Suns Prediction: The Suns are more motivated

Prediction for the NBA Minnesota Timberwolves vs Phoenix Suns match which will take place on April 14th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

The Timberwolves go into the game in second place in the Western Conference. Chris Finch's side have the same record as Oklahoma and Denver. Something tells me Minnesota won't mind finishing third at the end of the season. After all, the top two spots in the West increase the chances of a first-round playoff meeting with either the Los Angeles Lakers or Golden State.

Minnesota won the last game, though. At home, they came from behind to beat Atlanta 106:103.

The Suns are one win behind New Orleans but a game ahead of the Pelicans. If they beat Minnesota and Orleans loses to the Lakers, Phoenix will actually finish sixth in the West at the end of the regular season.

Frank Vogel's team remained in the race for a direct playoff spot based on their last meeting - on the road against Sacramento. Phoenix trailed most of the game but returned to win a hard-fought 108:107 decision.

Minnesota has been a comfortable opponent for Phoenix recently, including this championship. The Suns are more motivated in the standings, so we think the odds of Kevin Durant & Co. winning here are overvalued. In their last meeting, the two sides didn't even score 200 points.
