Trail Blazers vs. Timberwolves preview
The Blazers are coming into the game after winning three games in a row. They beat the Memphis Grizzlies in a two-game series at home and followed that up with a victory against the Philadelphia 76ers who were without the injured Joel Embiid.
The Blazers did get healthier during that game as Deni Avdija returned to the court after missing four games with a back injury. Getting Avdija back certainly helped as the Blazers scored 49 points in the third quarter to build a commanding lead that the Sixers could not get back from.
In order for the Blazers to keep their win streak alive, they will have to find a way to contain Anthony Edwards, who has led the Wolves in scoring in each of the last seven games, scoring 23 points or more. If the Blazers can keep Edwards at bay, they will have a much better chance of beating their division rival.
