Suns vs. Timberwolves
Julius Randle Over 21.5 Points
ANALYSIS
We are backing Julius Randle to exceed 21.5 points as he takes on the primary scoring role for Minnesota with superstar Anthony Edwards officially ruled out due to right knee inflammation. Randle enters tonight in excellent form after dropping 32 points on 11-of-18 shooting against Oklahoma City on Sunday, and he now faces a Phoenix frontcourt severely compromised by the confirmed absences of starting center Mark Williams and defensive anchor Dillon Brooks.
