The Timberwolves weathered the storm a bit with back-to-back wins over the Lakers and Clippers and got back to .500. However, that is still well below expectations as they are only in 11th place in the congested West. Away form has been a problem with just three wins in nine games, however they have what appears to be a favorable game against the Clippers tonight. They beat this team 93-92 just less than a week ago, and overall the T’Wolves are 6-1 and 5-2 against the number in the last seven meetings. The last meeting wasn’t pretty to watch, but right now the Timberwolves don’t really care, it’s all about piling up wins and trying to stay competitive.

LA played last night and was eliminated from the Emirates NBA Cup despite a big win over the Blazers. That means this will be their second night in a back-to-back scenario, they have beaten SU ​​3-2 in 5 such games this season. There is a stark contrast between games where you are the favorite and those where you are the underdog. Essentially, the Clippers like to beat weaker opponents (6-1 in a row as favorites), while they are just 7-8 SU this season against those at their level or better. For a team that has struggled with injury problems all year long, having to play two games on two nights is always problematic.

Anthony Edwards didn’t have the best of games against the Lakers on Monday, but I have a feeling a better performance is expected here. He averaged 28.2 points per game in his last five games against the Clippers. If he can hit those numbers and the Wolves defense can do a solid job here, Minnesota will come out on top. I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt and support Minnesota to win on the road here.
