The Minnesota Timberwolves will try to build on their signature win earlier this week as they take on the streaking Los Angeles Lakers at Crypto.com Arena on Thursday. The Timberwolves came through with their second win over the OKC Thunder, this month as Jaden McDaniels pumped up 27 points and 10 rebounds, and Naz Reid tallied 22 points and 11 boards to power the Wolves to a 131-128 win over the No.1 team in the West. Anthony Edwards scored 17 points on a 5 for 15 shooting but made a crucial block on Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s go-ahead layup. Luka Doncic showed what the Mavs have missed since trading him to the Los Angeles Lakers. The all-around phenom tallied his first triple-double in purple and gold uniform, posting 19 points, 15 rebounds and 12 assists in 35 minutes of play to lead his new team to a 107-99 win over his former club. LeBron James continued to be a perfect complement to Doncic as he finished with 27 points and 12 rebounds.

Our Los Angeles Lakers vs Minnesota Timberwolves Prediction
The Lakers passed in his first litmus test since acquiring Luka Doncic in their win vs. the Mavs. Now, they must establish consistency as they take on West heavyweights in the coming days. The Wolves are fresh off a statement win over the Thunder and are coming in with a 5-2 lead on the Lakers in their last seven games. It would be interesting to see how the match-ups will play out in this ballgame. Edwards is bound for a big game after a subpar scoring performance vs. the Thunder. The Lakers are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games, but I feel the Wolves will make a competitive duel down to the last position. Our betting prediction for Los Angeles Lakers vs. Minnesota Timberwolves: Wolves will cover -4.5 points.
Prediction:
Wolves will cover -4.5 points
