Game Preview
I hope everyone had a nice holiday weekend, but now it’s back to NBA action. The Miami Heat will welcome the Minnesota Timberwolves for a duel at FTX Arena at 7:40 PM EST. Both teams are coming off a loss last Friday, so this will be their chance to close out the year the way it should be.
The hosts come into this game after losing at home against Indiana 111-08, this is their chance to snap a three game losing streak. Friday’s offense was led by Tyler Herro scoring 28 points, Bam Adebayo contributed to the team with 7 rebounds and Kyle Lowry dished out 5 assists.
The Heat have not had the best results playing at home, having a 5-5 record. Their defense is not doing bad, giving up only 109 points. But the offense averages only 108 points per game, they have a hard time scoring.
On the other hand, the Timberwolves are in the same conditions, two consecutive losses and the most recent one against Boston 121-109. Both teams have been very inconsistent this season, but the Timberwolves have already beaten the Heat 105-101.
In their most recent loss the offense was led by Anthony Edwards and his incredible 30 points, Rudy Gobert supported with 12 rebounds and D’Angelo Russel dished out 10 assists.
Minnesota scores 114 points per game, but allows another 115.
The Timberwolves are not playing well away from home and Miami is not doing well at home, it will be a close game where the better offense will win. Although it should be mentioned that Karl Anthony is still out and we won’t be able to see him play for Minnesota, a factor to consider.
