Minnesota Timberwolves
Minnesota won three out of their four consecutive games at home. The Timberwolves are now 9–3 since trading Jimmy Butler and right back in the thick of things for a playoff spot in the Western Conference.
Karl-Anthony Towns got wherever he wanted on Wednesday night against the Hornets, scoring thirty-five points in thirty-six minutes. Derrick Rose scored sixteen off the bench, which actually lowered his scoring average this season.

Rose is the leading candidate for the Sixth Man of the Year award through the first third of the season with over eighteen points per game on close to a 50-40-90 line. It’s only the free-throws keeping him out of the club, at the moment.

Meanwhile, Robert Covington has changed his new team’s mentality on the defensive end and Dario Saric has slowly gained more and more confidence in Tom Thibodeau’s book. He’s up to over twenty minutes a night off the bench, now.
Portland Trail Blazers
Portland has come back down to Earth after that great start to the season. The Trail Blazers recently lost three games in a row but snapped the losing on Thursday night with a twenty-two-point home win over the lowly Phoenix Suns.
Damian Lillard scored a team-high twenty-five points without his backcourt mate, CJ McCollum, who missed the Phoenix game with a sprained ankle. He is listed as probable to return and play in this one.

Portland will get on the road for two in a row after this one. So far, Minnesota and Portland have each won a game against the other at home.
