LA Clippers vs Minnesota Timberwolves Prediction & Betting Tips - NBA
by Kennedy Kechula | in NBA Prediction
The LA Clippers will welcome the Minnesota Timberwolves for the final NBA regular season matchup between the two this season. Both teams are bumper to bumper in the Western Conference standings with Minnesota in third and LA fourth. The Clippers won the last time they faced off with the Timberwolves. This was slightly over a week ago in Minnesota and another win here will see them split this series at 2-2. A win will also see Ty Lue’s men close the game between the two to three games. The Clippers are coming off a 124-117 defeat at home to the Bucks. Their fourth loss in the last eight games ended a two-game winning run leaving them with a 41-22 record. Paul George, Kawhi Leonard, and Russell Westbrook missed the game and could do so once again here. At least for Westbrook as George and Leonard are questionable. The Clippers have averaged 117 points over their last three matches.
The Timberwolves have lost their last two games. Both matches have been on the road where they are 21-13 for the season. This slump has cost them their hold on top spot as they are now 1.5 games off the pace. Chris Finch’s men have managed just two wins in their last six games. They were defeated 120-109 last time out by the Clippers’ city rivals the Lakers to suffer their 21st defeat of the season. This slump has coincided with the injury to KAT Williams who is expected to be out indefinitely. The big man is Minnesota’s second-leading scorer and is averaging 22.1 points as well as 8.4 rebounds. Jaylen Clark is still sidelined with an Achilles problem and will not be involved here. Monte Morris has missed the last two games and is listed as ‘Questionable’ for this trip. The Timberwolves, who rank top on defence, have allowed 114.7 points over their last three matches. They have also scored 108.7 points over the same stretch. A win here for Minnesota will see them win this series 3-1.
