NBA: Sunday's play

Play: Minnesota +18.5 -108

Time: 6 p.m. ET

Reasoning: The Timberwolves stink and the Hawks are great, but this is just too many points. This is the biggest spread Atlanta has faced all season. It's played the fourth-easiest schedule and it's 3-4 ATS when laying eight or more points. Minnesota got C Nikola Pekovic back on Wednesday after a 31-game absence and G Kevin Martin (wrist) may play in this one. Andrew Wiggins is averaging 20.1 ppg over his last 16. The Wolves are 5-1 ATS in their last six when receiving double-digits, including outright winners at Denver and Indiana. Minnesota is excellent on the offensive glass (12.2 per game) and Atlanta is terrible (8.5) in that department. The Timberwolves get to the free-throw line as well.

Record: 255-194-9 (56.8%)
Bankroll: +154.19%
