Sunday, March 17 finds the Minnesota Timberwolves arrive at the Toyota Center to face their host the Houston Rockets. The Timberwolves last game was a 120-100 loss to the Utah Jazz on Wednesday. Houston meanwhile enters on the heels of Friday night 108-102 win over the Phoenix Suns.
Last season the Rockets swept the four-game series versus the Wolves while Minnesota won the first two games of this campaign. The Rockets also hold the all-time record having bested the Timberwolves in 76 of their 118 matches.
Minnesota Timberwolves
Karl-Anthony Towns has been feasting on clubs since surviving a car accident. In those nine games, he is averaging 34 points, 13.4 rebounds, 3.4 assists, 1.2 blocks and shooting the rock at a 49.1 percent efficiency from beyond the arc on 6.3 attempts.
Unfortunately, that hasn’t been enough as the Wolves lost six of those nine games.

Derrick Rose (soreness in his right elbow) and Jeff Teague (inflammation in his left foot) both missed the last two Wolves matches and are questionable to play on Sunday.
Luol Deng (sore left Achilles) and Robert Covington (bone bruise in his right knee) both remain out with no definitive timetable for return.
Houston Rockets
With Chris Paul and Clint Capela back on the hardwood the Houston Rockets are playing in a manner much closer to the style that got them the top seed and pushed the Warriors to seven games in the Western Conference Finals.
In the last 18 games, the Rockets are 14-4. The biggest improvement for the Rockets is occurring on the defensive side of the court where they rank second in March. On the season they rank 21st.

Free Minnesota Timberwolves vs. Houston Rockets NBA Prediction:
Although the Wolves are still mathematically in the race to land a playoff spot the reality is they have virtually no shot of making it since they trail the eighth seed by 7.5 games with 13 games remaining.
The one thing the Wolves will try to do is make an impression by beating top teams. They may not get to the playoffs but beating a top team may be their top moment to focus on in reflection of their underacheiving season.

While the Wolves will be desirous of a major effort, they’ve yet to showcase the ability to win on the road and the Rockets are on a mission to keep moving up the ladder.
