Warriors vs. Timberwolves Prediction: Injuries Make Minnesota’s Price a Pass
Analysis updated October 28, 2026 at 1:18 AM CDT
Anthony Edwards is out for Minnesota, while Golden State will be without Jimmy Butler III, Moses Moody and Kristaps Porzingis. The Timberwolves are the likely winner, but the available evidence doesn’t support a wager.
Key absences cloud Minnesota’s edge
The NBA injury report lists Anthony Edwards out because of right knee injury management and Donte DiVincenzo out following right Achilles tendon repair surgery. Minnesota is still a 3.5-point home favorite at SportsPicksForum, but Edwards’ absence makes laying the points or paying -155 on the moneyline difficult to justify.
Golden State also has significant losses. Jimmy Butler III and Moses Moody are out following knee surgeries, while Kristaps Porzingis is not with the team. Yaxel Lendeborg is questionable with left-foot inflammation and soreness. Those absences make the Warriors’ +3.5 spread and +130 moneyline poor alternatives rather than clear underdog value.
Betting verdict
Minnesota is the likely winner based on the home moneyline, but no team-form data, confirmed starters or verified line movement are available to strengthen that position. The 50-50 betting split is a default reading, not evidence of market sentiment. Pass on the side and the 228.5 total.
