Golden State has won the last three matchups against the Timberwolves. However, we feel Minnesota could be in a prime position to take advantage in the first game of the series. The Warriors are coming off a grueling seven-game series only two days ago, and they now have to travel to Minnesota. The Warriors gave up a 3-1 series advantage, costing the team an opportunity for reprieve going into the next round of the playoffs.
Golden State may have to switch up its starting lineup to keep up with the size and speed of Minnesota, which could result in chemistry issues on top of possible fatigue. The Timberwolves have won their last seven games at home, with a 14.7 point differential over that span.
The Timberwolves have scored more than 108.5 points in seven out of the last 10 games, while shooting 47.3% from the field over that span. Throughout the current seven-game win streak at home, Minnesota is averaging a powerful 120.9 points on 49.3% shooting. The Wolves went over 108.5 points in all seven games.
Stating that Rudy Gobert has a history with the Golden State Warriors would be putting it mildly. As if the energy of the playoffs does not create enough incentive, the previous interactions between the Minnesota center and the Warriors set up for what should be a very physical battle down low. A situation that could create many opportunities to block shots for the veteran big man.
Gobert has blocked at least one shot attempt in 11 out of the previous 15 home games, while averaging 1.1 blocks over that span. The Timberwolves center has swatted away one shot in the last three games and six overall.
There are very few occurrences in the NBA that build a buzz quite like Naz Reid, playing at home and fighting for the chance to move on in the playoffs. Reid is a fan favorite who has proven to be most successful in many instances this season.
The Minnesota forward has been nothing short of fantastic at home over the last 10 games, averaging 10.2 points, 5.2 rebounds and 2.4 assists in only 24.2 minutes on the floor. Reid has shot over 57% from the field while knocking down two three-pointers in back-to-back contests at home. In the previous 10 games at home, Reid has failed to go over 17+ combined points + rebounds + assists in only two out of the previous 10 contests at the Target Center.
