Timberwolves Analysis: Anthony Edwards coming off 44 point game
With Towns out, veteran center Rudy Gobert has become more active. Gobert scored 18 points and pulled down 14 rebounds for his 4th consecutive double-double in Thursday’s victory over Indiana. Gobert scored 12 points and pulled down 16 rebounds in an 89-88 defeat to the Los Angeles Clippers on Sunday, but he had 25 points and 16 rebounds in a 119-114 victory over Portland on Monday. Gobert was averaging 13.8 points, 12.8 rebounds, 2.1 blocks, and 1.2 assists in 33.8 minutes of play before Thursday’s game. Anthony Edwards, the shooting guard, is another player who will be expected to contribute to the score in Towns’ absence. Against the Pacers on Thursday, Edwards, the number one pick in the 2020 NBA Draft, was on fire, tallying a game-high 44 points.
Cavaliers Analysis: They have 21 wins in their home court
One of the most compelling narratives of the NBA season has been Cleveland’s ascent to the top of the Eastern Conference, and going into this game, they’ll be expecting to heavily rely on that confidence. It’s hardly shocking that this team has only gone 2-23 in their previous 5 games given how difficult injuries have been for them lately. They suffered a setback on the road the previous time out, but they are expected to recover now that they are back where they have one of the greatest home records in the NBA. They are 21-11 at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse, and with two more home games left before this one.
