Teams Preview
Minnesota Timberwolves Preview
In their last game against the Golden State Warriors, the Timberwolves lost by 26 points (85-111). Anthony Edwards led Minnesota with 32 points and 11 rebounds after the game was postponed a day following a local tragedy. Donte DiVincenzo added 22 points and Julius Randle contributed 11 points and 6 assists. The Timberwolves found a burst of energy for a 10-0 run to close the first half, but started the third quarter flat and trailed by double digits for the final 16 minutes.
It was their lowest final score in more than four years and their first time under 100 points this season. The Timberwolves enter this matchup desperately seeking to end their five-game losing streak and their longest skid in more than three years. They need to rediscover their offensive rhythm that ranks solid in scoring efficiency. At home at Target Center, they benefit from crowd support but must convert that energy into defensive intensity. If they can execute their balanced attack with contributions from Edwards, Randle, and Gobert, the Timberwolves could bounce back against the Warriors.
The Timberwolves on average score 119.9 points per game, they score 48.3% from the field and are ranked 8th in the league, and 36.9% from the arc and are ranked 17th in the league. The Timberwolves grab 44.8 rebounds per game and ranked 11th in season.
Golden State Warriors Preview
In their last match against the Minnesota Timberwolves, the Warriors won by 26 points (111-85). Stephen Curry scored 26 points and added seven assists and four steals despite being listed as questionable with knee soreness. Moses Moody added 19 points and eight rebounds while Brandin Podziemski contributed 12 points, six assists and four steals. The Warriors recorded a season-high 20 steals and dominated after halftime, outscoring Minnesota 38-17 in the third quarter to take control of the game for good.
The Warriors come in looking to build on their momentum after dominating Minnesota in their previous meeting. They have offensive firepower led by Curry and Butler, but consistency remains crucial for playoff positioning. On the road, they'll need production from multiple players to keep pace with the desperate Timberwolves. If Golden State can defend aggressively and limit turnovers while continuing their strong ball movement, they should stay competitive against a talented Timberwolves team at Target Center.
The Warriors on average score 115.2 points per game, they score 45.5% from the field and are ranked 24th in the league, and 36.3% from the arc and are ranked 19th in the league. The Warriors grab 43.6 rebounds per game and ranked 13th in season.
