While the Spurs, with Victor Vembanyama in the lineup, are probably the season's biggest disappointment so far, Minnesota is a major revelation. The Timberwolves' class was not in doubt before the start of the season. Still, hardly anyone expected the Minneapolis team to lead the Western Conference by the end of the first quarter of the regular season with a 15-4 record.

In their last game, Minnesota beat Charlotte on the road for their fourth straight win. 123:117 - the Wolves' big-man duo was great once again. Karl-Anthony Towns scored 28 points, and Rudy Gober recorded a double-double - 26 points and 12 rebounds. Mike Conley also had 14 points and ten assists. Even the absence of Anthony Edwards, who might miss the game against the Spurs, didn't bother Minnesota.

The longest losing streak in NBA history is 26 games. Cleveland achieved this in the 2010/11 season, and Philadelphia in the championship in 2013/14. San Antonio has 14 consecutive losses, so the record is still far off. Nevertheless, it is quite possible, given that the Spurs have given away most of these matches without any hint of success.

The last offender of the team was New Orleans, which was stronger than 121:106 at home. Interestingly, a day earlier, San Antonio played its best game on the losing streak, losing at home to Atalanta with a difference of only two points - 135:137.

Minnesota is the leader of the Western Conference, and there is little doubt in the victory of the Timberwolves over the weakest team of the season. San Antonio is very bad defensively. The Spurs are 28th in the defensive rating, allowing opponents to score almost 124 points per game on average. Accordingly, we'll bet on a Minnesota win and a total over here.
