The Dallas Mavericks (4-10) visit the Minnesota Timberwolves (8-5) in an NBA 2025-26 game on Monday, November 17, at the Target Center.
The Timberwolves stake their solid home record when they host the Mavericks on Monday. Recently, they absorbed a 123-112 home loss to the Denver Nuggets, a game where Minnesota actually led 60-55 at halftime before getting outscored in the second half.
Wolves stars Anthony Edwards and Julius Randle produced 26 points apiece in the loss. It snapped their previous four-game winning streak and dropped them to 7th place in the stacked Western Conference.
As for the Mavericks, they finally snapped their skid with a 138-133 overtime victory over the Portland Trail Blazers. That win ended a three-game losing streak and gave Dallas just its second victory in its last nine outings.
P.J. Washington Jr. and rookie Cooper Flagg paced the Mavs with 21 points apiece, while Daniel Gafford added 20 in a much-needed offensive breakout.
This game will be a battle between two different styles. The Mavericks have the third-best defensive rating in the league, while the Timberwolves carry the fourth-best offensive rating. Let's see if the Mavericks can muster enough offense to keep up with the Timberwolves.
