- The Minnesota Timberwolves have a major advantage in the paint in this matchup, as the duo of Karl-Anthony Towns and Rudy Gobert should be able to limit the Raptors on the glass and on second chance points.
- The three-point shooting for the Raptors got worse in the offseason with the departure of Fred VanVleet, which will cause problems early this season in Toronto.
While it may not be the most attractive NBA matchup stylistically, Timberwolves vs Raptors should be a very good game nonetheless. In this matchup, look for the Timberwolves to use their superior size and outside shooting to gain the upper hand on the Raptors in Toronto. While this game should stay close throughout, we like the Wolves to win their opener, as the Raptors try to figure things out early in the year with their new roster additions.
