The Minnesota Timberwolves are coming off back-to-back triumphs against Portland and Denver, but I think they're about to run into trouble at Phoenix Saturday night. The Sun are coming off a 97-95 win against Memphis and they've covered the spread in four of their last five games.

The Wolves are two games clear at the top of the Southeast Division and probably just looking forward to get home for Christmas Eve before taking on the Lakers at LA the next day. The Suns are just 5-12 SU at home on the season but 19-7-1 ATS in their last 27 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record. Timberwolves are 3-13 ATS in their last 16 road games vs. a team with a home winning % of less than .400.

My selection is an 8* play on Phoenix Suns.
