This is the very first time that Minnesota and LA are locking horns this season, making this one a very interesting game to watch.
The Minnesota Timberwolves are heading into this encounter after a two-game set at Moda Center in Portland. They’ve had a few disappointing moments as they suffered a couple of losses to the Trail Blazers, 124-118 and 133-112, while also failing to cover the spread on both matches.

Meanwhile, Minnesota made 49.5% of its field goals and 37.0% of its three-pointers, all of this while surprisingly missing 9 of its 19 free-throw attempts and allowing a whopping 24 fast-break points.
Meanwhile, the Los Angeles Clippers took down the league-leading Boston Celtics 113-93 on Monday. It was their second straight win and the third out of their last five games. LA held the Celtics to a decent 43.4% shooting from the field and 23.1% from beyond the arc, allowing only 46 points during the second half.
