As the NBA playoffs heat up, we’re deep into the part of the season where every possession matters and momentum swings can define entire series. With road teams stealing wins and home teams pushing back, the betting landscape is full of opportunity—but only if you’re backing the right spots. At Hot Streak Picks, we focus on key trends, recent performance, and line movement to bring you the best edges every day.
Let’s be honest—yesterday didn’t go our way. We went 0 for 2 on the card:
New York Knicks @ Indiana Pacers (-2): We didn’t cover with the Pacers. Despite a solid lead, Karl-Anthony Towns exploded for 20 of his 24 points in the fourth quarter, helping the Knicks complete yet another massive comeback. Jalen Brunson took over late to seal the 106-100 win. It’s now three straight road wins in the series.
New York Knicks @ Indiana Pacers (Over 218): We missed the over by 12 points. The pace slowed, and despite strong individual performances, the teams came up short of clearing the number.
Now we shift our focus to today’s matchups:
✅ Oklahoma City Thunder @ Minnesota Timberwolves (+3): We’re backing the Wolves to cover. OKC is just 2-4 ATS in their last 6 against Minnesota and an abysmal 0-6 ATS in their last 6 on the road. Meanwhile, Minnesota is dominant at home—going 10-1 straight up in their last 11.
✅ Oklahoma City Thunder @ Minnesota Timberwolves (Over 219): We like the over here too. OKC has gone over in 4 of their last 5, and the same is true for the Wolves. Expect an offensive showcase with plenty of fastbreaks and big shot-making on both sides.
