On Sunday, the Minnesota Timberwolves and Los Angeles Lakers meet for the third of four scheduled meetings this season. Minnesota won both prior meetings and will host the final contest on April 7th.
Both teams last played on Friday with the Wolves losing 104-113 to the Cavaliers while the Lakers defeated the Bucks by a single point (123-122) .
Season Series
LA holds the all-time edge over the Wolves with 84 wins in 126 matches although last season Minnesota won the season series two games to one.
*Editor’s Note: Statistics and rankings are current as of this writing, on Saturday, March 9th. Numbers may vary slightly entering games on Sunday, March 10th.
Minnesota Timberwolves
Anthony Edwards has stepped up for the Wolves in the absence of Towns producing a highlight reel worth of season end awards like his game saving block against Indiana.
He did his best to capture the win in Cleveland but after taking several falls the night prior he didn’t have the same lift in his legs. The worry for Minny will be seeding as it’s likely both the Thunder and Nuggets will overtake them before season end.
Timberwolves Stats
Minnesota ranks tied for 18th on offense (114.6) and first defensively (108.0) while they are a plus +6.6 net differential, ranking third overall.
The Wolves are riding the middle with a 31-32-1 record against the spread through 64 matches this season.
Timberwolves Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Karl-Anthony Towns, C (OUT indefinitely — meniscus)
- Monte Morris, PG (downgraded to OUT — hamstring)
- Anthony Edwards, SG (questionable — ankle)
- Jaylen Clark, SF (OUT indefinitely—Achilles)
Los Angeles Lakers
The Lakers are plugging along at a .500 clip since returning from the break. The problem is they need to win at a higher percentage if they are to move up the rankings.
Losing to the Kings (a team they need to catch) didn’t help their cause. Of the teams ahead of them LA owns the tiebreak against the Clippers, Thunder, and Suns. Conversely, the Nuggets and Mavericks own the tiebreak versus the Lakers.
Three other series are yet to be decided including the Wolves who lead 2-0, the Warriors (tied 1-1), and Pelicans who LA leads 2-1 in their series.
Lakers Stats
LA ranks 17th offensively (114.7) and 18th defensively (115.3), with a minus net differential of -0.6 ranking 19th overall.
The Lakers aren’t a great choice when betting against the spread with a 30-36 record to this point in the season.
Lakers Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- LeBron James, SF (questionable —ankle)
- Anthony Davis, PF (questionable — shoulder)
- Christian Wood, PF (OUT indefinitely — knee)
- Jarred Vanderbilt, SF (OUT indefinitely — foot)
- Cam Reddish, SG (probable — ankle)
- Gabe Vincent, PG (OUT indefinitely —knee)
- Colin Castleton, C (OUT indefinitely — wrist)

Free Minnesota Timberwolves vs. Los Angeles Lakers NBA Prediction:
Both teams limp into this match with the superstars either out injured or listed as questionable. That makes predicting the winner that much more difficult.
LA has a knack for winning these matches but if AntMan plays I like the Wolves. Check back just before game time to see who is in and who isn’t playing. If Edwards is in take the points and the Wolves but if he’s out take the Lakers.
