Washington Wizards
Washington comes into this game with a 34-44 record overall and they have gone 13-25 straight up away from home. The Wizards have won two of their last three games but in the last game against the Boston Celtics they were defeated. The defense gave up 144 to the Celtics and that led to the defeat.
Two games ago against the Dallas Mavericks, the Wizards scored 135 points and in this game they are going to need the offense to be strong again. Washington is averaging 108.6 points while their defense is giving up 111.7 points per game.
The team traded for Kristaps Porzingas at the trade deadline and he has been a good fit on the team. Porzingis is averaging 19.2 points while shooting 45.1 percent from the field and 28.3 percent from behind the three point line.
Minnesota Timberwolves
On the other side of this matchup is the Minnesota Timberwolves who sit with a 45-34 record and they have gone 25-13 at home. The Wolves have won two games in a row and each of the games have been high scoring. Two games ago against Denver they won 136-130 and in the last game against Houston they won 139-132.
The Wolves are averaging 115.8 points while their defense is giving up 112.8 points per game. The Wolves are an elite offensive team, but their defense has been an issue at times, and something that needs to be cleaned up a bit before the playoffs.
Karl-Anthony Towns is having a strong season averaging 24.6 points and 9.8 rebounds. Towns is a strong three-pointer shooting and it’s going to be important that he has a big game in this one. Patrick Beverley is dealing with a left ankle sprain and it’s unclear if he will be able to go in this game.
