The Minnesota Timberwolves will welcome the Charlotte Hornets to the Target Center in an NBA cross-conference clash. The Timberwolves are in sixth place in the Western Conference standings, while the Hornets are eighth in the East. Here's our match prediction.
The Minnesota Timberwolves are not at their best at the moment, suffering three defeats in their last four matches.
In their recent match, they faced the Philadelphia 76ers on the road. The final result was a 115-103 defeat. This extended their losing streak to two games. Nah'Shon Hyland led the team with 21 points in that match.
The Timberwolves are out to capitalise on home court advantage to return to winning ways. At the Target Center, they've won three of their last five outings. However, their recent match was a defeat to the Pistons.
After dropping two games against the 76ers and the Celtics in the latter stages of March, the Charlotte Hornets come into this match high on confidence, having won their last three matches.
In their recent match, they faced the Indiana Pacers on the second night of a back-to-back and won 129-108 in front of their home crowd. Brandon Miller led the team with 22 points.
The Hornets will be seeking a fourth consecutive win this time away from home. It has been a great display as they've won three of their last four outings.
