What you need to know about the Timberwolves
The Timberwolves suffered a grim 117-94 defeat to the Philadelphia 76ers on Tuesday. Minnesota was down 87-68 at the end of the third quarter, which was just too much to recover from. The losing side was boosted by shooting guard Anthony Edwards, who shot 5-for-10 from beyond the arc and finished with 32 points and seven rebounds. Edwards is averaging 24.7 points, 5.9 rebounds and 4.5 assists per game this season.
The Timberwolves are 16-5 against the spread in their last 21 meetings against the Nets in Minnesota. The Timberwolves are scoring 115.3 points per game on average, while giving up 115.6 points per game this season.
What you need to know about the Nets
Meanwhile, the Nets were within striking distance but couldn’t close the gap on Thursday as they fell 118-113 to the Milwaukee Bucks. A silver lining for Brooklyn was the play of point guard Patty Mills, who shot 5-for-9 from downtown and finished with 23 points and seven boards.
Mikal Bridges has also been playing extremely well for the Nets in recent days, scoring 30 or more points in three of his last four games. He was held to just 10 points in the loss against Milwaukee, so he’ll look to bounce back on Friday against the Timberwolves.
