Meanwhile, the Rockets haven&#8217;t won by eight-plus points since Jan. 15.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chris Finch&#8217;s team operates at a slow tempo, and the Rockets lack the elite shooters needed to defeat a defensively sound team by a wide margin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That&#8217;s why I am confident the T-Wolves will keep this game close.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">SGP legs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/online.northstarbets.ca\/page?key=ej0xMzUyNDU3MiZsPTEzNTcxMDUzJnA9MjM3MDk%3D\">Brooks over 14.5 points\/rebounds (-132)<\/a>:<\/strong> Brooks is quietly on a heater, I want to back him while the iron is still hot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The savvy Canadian continues to play a greater role on the offensive end, especially with Fred VanVleet and Jabari Smith sidelined due to injury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He&#8217;s not the most efficient shooter, but his ability to score in various ways makes him dangerous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although the T-Wolves are solid defensively, they allow the fourth-most rebounds to small forwards like Brooks. The last time he faced Houston in November, he grabbed 22 points and 3 rebounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Plus, Brooks has cashed this prop in six of his last seven games. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/online.northstarbets.ca\/page?key=ej0xMzUyNDU3MiZsPTEzNTcxMDUzJnA9MjM3MDk%3D\"><strong>Reid 3+ threes<\/strong> (-107)<\/a>:<\/strong> With Julius Randle (groin) out, Reid has been taking full advantage of his opportunity as a starter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In three starts this season, he&#8217;s averaging 3.7 made three-pointers on 8.3 attempts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The reigning Sixth Man of the Year buried four triples en route to a 22-point performance last night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Reid has improved his shooting efficiency over the years, hitting at a career-high 42.2 clip from three. Even if the efficiency drops, Reid should hit this on just volume alone. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He has reached this mark in 10 of his past 13 games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Picks made at 10:23 a.m. ET 02\/06\/2025<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"thestar\"><em>Looking to get started? <a href=\"https:\/\/online.northstarbets.ca\/page?key=ej0xMzUyNzQxMyZsPTEzNTI3NDExJnA9MjMyNDM%3D\">Sign up here<\/a>. <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Houston Rockets, on a four-game losing skid, face the Minnesota Timberwolves tonight at the Target Center.
