Minnesota Timberwolves vs Memphis Grizzlies Preview

The Timberwolves are a shell of the team that reached the Western Conference Finals in the 2024 playoffs. They have followed a peculiar pattern lately, losing three in a row and winning three in a row in two instances. Anthony Edwards has been dominant but Julius Randle has been inconsistent and the same is true with last season’s best catch-and-shoot guard Donte DiVincenzo. The Wolves are currently in the seventh spot, but only a half game back from the sixth spot.

The Grizzlies have cooled down after a scintillating start to the season. They have lost four of their last six games, largely because of a tough schedule. Their defense has been a concern as of late but their offense has continued to sizzle. Jaren Jackson Jr. has been the leading scorer, building upon a breakout year last season. The team has shown interest in Jimmy Butler but would it be wise to break up their current balance? As of now, they are just 1.5 games back from the second spot in the West.

Minnesota Timberwolves vs Memphis Grizzlies– Final Prediction and Additional Information

This is the first time these teams will clash during the 2024-25 season. While the Grizzlies are struggling on defense, the Timberwolves are having trouble on offense. The Timberwolves have been a mixed bag at home, while the Grizzlies have had trouble finishing on the road. Thus, the Wolves are likely to come on top but maybe by a slim margin of 1-5 points.

Anthony Edwards may explode for yet another 30+ points night while Jaren Jackson can have 23+ points too.
