The Minnesota Timberwolves have been struggling even with the return of Karl-Anthony Towns. But against the Kings, this is their best chance to secure a victory since their last encounter was overtime loss just this January 27. In that match, Karl-Anthony Towns had a fair night with 23 points, eight rebounds but he also had seven turnovers as well. Andrew Wiggins had been their best offensive weapon as he did 36 points, nine rebounds and eight assists. Ryan Covington also chipped in with 24 points but for them to get over the hump they need guys like Shabazz Napier, Jarrett Culiver and Josh Okogie to help in the production.

The Kings are a team that is improving and they have won three of their last five games. They are coming off from a loss against the Los Angles Lakers but looking back on their last encounter with the Wolves, it was a total team effort to take an overtime victory on the road. Nemanja Bjelica contributed across the board with 20 points, nine rebounds, eight assists, two steals and three blocks. DeAaron Fox did 22 points, eight assists and seven rebounds but the biggest production came from Buddy Hield who lit up with 42 points along with nine triples, five rebounds and three assists. They need to work as a team in order to keep the Wolves at bay as they just found lightning in the bottle with Hield’s performance.
