Who’s Playing
Minnesota @ Memphis
Current Records: Minnesota 2-2; Memphis 2-2
What to Know
After a two-game homestand, the Minnesota Timberwolves will be on the road. After a few days’ rest for both teams, they and the Memphis Grizzlies will meet up at 7:30 p.m. ET April 26 at FedExForum. Minnesota should still be riding high after a win, while Memphis will be looking to get back in the win column.
The Timberwolves are hoping for another victory. They escaped with a win this past Saturday against the Grizzlies by the margin of a single free throw, 119-118. Minnesota relied on the efforts of center Karl-Anthony Towns, who posted a double-double on 33 points and 14 rebounds, and small forward Anthony Edwards, who had 24 points along with three blocks.
Minnesota’s win brought them up to 2-2 while Memphis’ defeat pulled them down to an identical 2-2. Both teams are in the playoff hunt, so this is a critical matchup. The Timberwolves are expected to win this handily, but they should have beaten the Washington Wizards April 5 easily too and instead slipped up with a 132-114. In other words, don’t count Memphis out just yet.
