Key Storylines
Minnesota enters this contest as a solid home favorite thanks to a 17-9 record and a 9-4 record on their home floor. The Timberwolves have won two games in a row, including a 127-120 triumph over the Golden State Warriors while missing star Anthony Edwards.

They just rolled over the Los Angeles Clippers 121-103, led by Jaren Jackson Jr.’s 31 points and a breakout performance from sharpshooter Cam Spencer. Spencer scorched the nets with 27 points and seven three-pointers. Memphis continues to struggle with injuries and roster limitations, as big man Zach Edey is out for at least four weeks with an ankle issue and guard John Konchar recently underwent thumb surgery. Ja Morant is listed as questionable with an ankle injury, while several role players are out for this contest like Ty Jerome and Scotty Pippen Jr.
