Grinding to Glory: Tonight’s Tempo Twist Sets the Wolves Up for a Sneaky Cover

Think of this matchup like swapping a sports car for a stick-shift muscle cruiser—slower revs, heavier torque, and just enough rumble to shake loose a few hidden edges. The books are still pricing Oklahoma City like we’re drag-racing down the Strip, but the latest pace data says we’re crawling through downtown traffic. In that squeeze, Minnesota’s +8.5 suddenly feels like premium legroom, and the total looks a shade too plump. Buckle in, #WildcardCrew—value lives in the grind tonight.
