***Official Hawks @ Timberwolves GDT 12 Apr Official***
The 10th place injury-riddled Atlanta Hawks (36-44) wheel-chair into Target Center tonight to face the 2nd place Timberwolves (55-25). Tip off is at 7 PM.
This will be the pentultimate game in a very exciting 2023-24 regular season for our Timberwolves. There's little reason for the Hawks (currently on a four game losing streak) to bring their A game tonight - they and the Bulls are locked into the 9 and 10 spots in the Eastern Conference, and will face each other in the play-ins. That said, the Hawks were 127-113 victors over Minnesota the only other time the two teams played this year - plus hold a 7-3 advantage over Minnesota in the last few years. They have kind of had our number. The big news for Minnesota is that Karl-Anthony Towns is listed as Questionable - and could quite possibly see some PT tonight.
The Timberwolves are favored by 13 points.
Injury Report:
Atlanta - Saddiq Bey, Jalen Johnson, Wes Matthews, Seth Lundy and Onyeka Okongwu are Out. Clint Capela, AJ Griffin and Dejounte Murray are all Questionable. The recent injuries to Johnson and Okongwu are especially tough for Atlanta - as both are expected to miss their play-in series vs the Bulls.
Minnesota - Jaylen Clark is Out. Karl Anthony-Towns has been upgraded to Questionable. When checking the official injury reports from around the league, the conclusion I come to is that the Timberwolves are in fabulous shape going into the playoffs. Let's hope nothing weird happens in these final two games.
Cheers Froobs and Go Timberwolves!

ARod is going to be sitting across the court in front of Taylor.

Regardless of who plays, we need to come out focused and take care of business tonight. No more slow starts at home.
Time to gear up for the playoffs!

I hate that the freak is out against okc, it's such a huge game for both of those teams.
A win tonight locks up the 2nd seed at minimum? and takes the pressure of the Sun's game. I just want to see the wolves blow this team out start to finish.

I think I want to see that little bitch Trae Young lose more than I want to see the wolves win.
I realize that’s unhealthy.

Laughing at myself because I thought they were still up a game on okc. Which then reminded me why I wasn't happy the freak was out because okc needed to lose that game

i see Karl got off to an inauspicious start sending Hunter to the line for three FTs 15 seconds into the game. Rust.

Ant not playing the whole first quarter for the first time in a long time. maybe because he's sick--but i don't think this is a bad thing. just watching without sound--so i don't know if they talked about this or not.

Ant's last half of basketball (4th quarter on Wednesday, 1st quarter tonight) is really nothing to write home about. 2 points on 1 for 6 shooting, 4 fouls, that's it.

Did Karl start or has he come off the bench?
