Yahoo Sports: Breaking news, live scores, and expert analysis

In a thrilling matchup, the Timberwolves gear up to face the Warriors on the second night of a challenging back-to-back schedule for Golden State.

Minnesota is 11-10 and winners of three straight. The Timberwolves beat the Clippers (93-92), Lakers (109-80), and Clippers again (108-80) during the three-game winning streak. The Wolves are 4-6 on the road this year and will face the Warriors in San Francisco tonight and Sunday.

The Warriors snapped a five-game losing streak with a home victory over the Rockets last night (99-93) improving to 13-8. Golden State was without Steph Curry and Draymond Green in that contest and could get both back tonight (both questionable). Jonathan Kuminga led Golden State in scoring with 33 points and the Warriors are 1-1 with no rest this year with a victory over the Pelicans and a loss to the Spurs.

NBC Sports Bet Best Bet

Vaughn Dalzell (@VmoneySports) likes the Minnesota Timberwolves to get the win in San Francisco:

"The Warriors are on no rest and the third back-to-back situation of the season. Luckily, Golden State was at home last night and could get back either or both Draymond Green and Steph Curry.

Minnesota is 4-3 ATS and on the ML with a rest advantage, while Golden State is 0-1 in this situation (and 1-1 with no rest). The Warriors are one of the better scheduled teams when it comes to avoiding rest disadvantages but this is a spot where the offense should struggle.

The win last night for the Warriors broke a five-game losing streak and I don't expect the victory over the Rockets to keep the good times rolling for Golden State. I like Minnesota +1 and on the ML (+100)."

Here are the best bets our model is projecting for the Timberwolves and the Warriors:

· Moneyline: NBC Sports has confidence in taking Minnesota on the ML (+100)

· Spread: NBC Sports has confidence in Minnesota +1 on the spread

· Total: NBC Sports has low confidence towards a play on the Total UNDER 219.5 points
