Who's Playing
Minnesota @ Washington
Current Records: Minnesota 7-26; Washington 12-18
What to Know
This Saturday, the Minnesota Timberwolves are hoping to patch up the holes in a defense that has allowed an average of 116.09 points per matchup. They will hit the road for the fourth straight game as they head to Capital One Arena at 7 p.m. ET Saturday. They will be seeking to avenge the 130-109 loss they suffered the last time these two teams played January 1st.
The Timberwolves fought the good fight in their overtime game against the Chicago Bulls on Wednesday but wound up with a less-than-desirable result, falling 133-126. Despite the defeat, Minnesota had strong showings from power forward Jarred Vanderbilt, who had 16 points along with six boards, and center Karl-Anthony Towns, who had 24 points and five assists in addition to eight rebounds. Vanderbilt had some trouble finding his footing against the Milwaukee Bucks on Tuesday, so this was a step in the right direction.
Meanwhile, the Washington Wizards came out on top in a nail-biter against the Denver Nuggets on Thursday, sneaking past 112-110. It was another big night for Washington's shooting guard Bradley Beal, who had 33 points.
The Timberwolves are expected to lose this next one by 4.5. Now might not be the best time to take Minnesota against the spread since they've let down bettors for the past six consecutive games.
Minnesota's loss took them down to 7-26 while Washington's victory pulled them up to 12-18. We'll see if Washington can repeat their recent success or if Minnesota bounces back and reverse their fortune.
