The Minnesota Timberwolves will travel to TD Garden to face the Boston Celtics in the NBA on Sunday night. The Celts (47-23) are second in Eastern Conference standings, while the Timberwolves (43-28) are in sixth in the West. Let’s get into the match prediction!
The Boston Celtics are in a fine run of form, having won nine of their last 12 games and now aiming for a fifth straight victory in a row after beating the Grizzlies 117-112 on Friday.
Jayson Tatum had a bit of an off night, scoring just 13 points, but Jaylen Brown stepped up with 30 points and six assists, reinforcing that he could be the team’s main man in the Playoffs this season.
The C’s are 24-10 at home but lost their only match against this opponent this season 119-115 in November. Nikola Vucevic is the only confirmed absentee for Boston in this match.
Meanwhile, the Minnesota Timberwolves have not been at their best in recent games, losing five of their last eight, including a 108-104 defeat to the Portland Trail Blazers on Friday night.
The Timberwolves' dip in form has coincided with the injury to Anthony Edwards, who is once again ruled out for this match. Without him, the team's chances of moving up in the West do not look promising.
Minnesota are 19-15 on the road this season. Naz Reid is listed as a doubt for the visitors in this one.

Our Boston Celtics vs Minnesota Timberwolves Prediction
The visitors came out on top when these sides met in November, but alot has changed since then, most notably, the return of Jayson Tatum for the C’s and the absence of Anthony Edwards for the Timberwolves.
With Edwards sidelined, the Timberwolves do not look anywhere close to as dangerous as they do with him on the court, and their record here at TD Garden does not inspire much confidence in their chances tonight. Our Boston Celtics vs Minnesota Timberwolves prediction is Boston Celtics -7.5.
