by Devesh Jaganath in NBA Predictions
The Minnesota Timberwolves pay a visit to the Fiserv Forum to take on the Milwaukee Bucks in the NBA on Thursday night. The hosts are 33-18 and third in the Eastern Conference, while the visitors are 35-16 and second in the Western Conference.
The Minnesota Timberwolves have been performing relatively well lately, securing victories in five of their last eight games overall. However, they will look to recover from a setback here after falling to the Bulls in a narrow 129-123 overtime defeat on Tuesday. Anthony Edwards showcased an impressive performance, leading the team with 38 points, 12 rebounds, and five assists, while Karl-Anthony Towns contributed 33 points on 11-of-22 shooting. Currently, the Timberwolves rank 22nd in scoring in the NBA, averaging 113.1 points per game, while the Milwaukee Bucks rank 24th in points allowed per game, conceding 119.8 points. Interestingly, Minnesota tends to score fewer points at home (112.7 per game) compared to away games (113.5). However, their defense remains sturdy, limiting opponents to 108 points or fewer in four of their last five games and averaging just 107.1 points allowed, leading the NBA in this category. Jaylen Clark is the sole player listed as doubtful for the Timberwolves in the upcoming match.
The Milwaukee Bucks find themselves in a rough patch, dropping four of their last five games overall. They wil be out to halt their two-game skid following a 114-106 road loss to the Suns on Tuesday. Giannis Antetokounmpo led the team with an impressive performance, scoring 34 points, grabbing 10 rebounds, and dishing out six assists on 13-of-24 shooting, while Malik Beasley contributed 22 points. Despite their offensive prowess, ranking second in the NBA with 123.3 points per game, the Bucks face a tough challenge against the Minnesota Timberwolves, who boast the league's stingiest defense, allowing only 107.1 points per game. Milwaukee's defensive struggles are evident, conceding at least 117 points in three of their last five games and averaging 119.8 points allowed, placing them 24th in the league.
