Spurs vs Timberwolves Picks & Predictions
Below we’ve worked up a few of our best bets for Spurs-TWolves Game 3 as recommended by the Hard Rock Bet Stats Hub. Select the ‘Stats Hub’ button within the top menu of the app to check out all of the available insights.
Spurs-Timberwolves Best Bet: Devin Vassell over 11.5 points
First stop is Devin Vassell’s points prop which is currently set at 11.5. He went over the number in Game 1, but came up just short with 10 points in a non-contentious Game 2 where he logged just 22 minutes. Per StatsHub, Vassell has eclipsed 13 points in each of his last eight visits to the Target Center… and he only needs 12 to cash this one. At -105 the price is right, too.
Spurs @ Timberwolves Best Bet: Rudy Gobert under 7.5 points
Under bets can be uncomfortable, but Rudy Gobert has failed to hit eight points in four of his last five games – he’s just not scoring the basketball effectively so far in the 2026 playoffs. Add the NBA Defensive Player of the Year to the equation with Victor Wembanyama and the number becomes even harder. Gobert took nine free throws in Game 2 and still only came away with five points.
Spurs vs Timberwolves moneyline pick: Minnesota +170
Finally, we’ll cap off the picks and predictions for Game 3 with a standard moneyline bet. The Minnesota Timberwolves have won seven straight home games against the San Antonio Spurs… and the price is now up to +170.
