What to Look For
Wolves head coach Kurt Rambis said his squad was not defensively connected in the loss to the Jazz on Friday. The turnovers will also a major factor for Minnesota as the team coughed up the rock 25 times, resulting in 30 Utah points. Remarkably, the Wolves were within striking distance late in the game and once again received a 20/15 performance from Love. Another positive sign for Minnesota was Wes Johnson’s 19 points and now the rookie has put together three consecutive games with double-digit points.
One team will snap a long losing streak tonight at the Target Center. Both squads allow over 105 points per game but Minnesota owns a sizable advantage on the glass heading into the matchup. Expect a high scoring game and turnovers will be a key factor for two teams in search of a much needed victory.
