Pick rationale
Analysis & key factors
- Timberwolves vs. Knicks is scheduled this Sunday night at the Madison Square Garden.
- Both teams have a pair of wins entering this game.

The Timberwolves made a bid for the NBA title last year. The Knicks did that during the preseason when they landed KAT. This matchup is huge, particularly because of that Karl-Anthony Towns trade, which saw him leave Minneapolis after a decade of playing there.

Match Preview
One other guy is in a similar situation regarding this event—Julius Randle. He was sent to Minnesota from New York, though his status for Sunday’s event is questionable.
Other than that, the Timberwolves are playing solid basketball, winning both of their preseason events—against the Lakers 124-107 and the 76ers 121-111. Anthony Edwards had 16 points and four boards in that one, while Naz Reid scored 19 buckets.
The fact that KAT goes against his former teammates and the team where he made his name is enough to make this matchup interesting. The eyes of the entire NBA community will be on Madison this Sunday.
He blended in perfectly into the Knicks’ game. In a 117-94 win over the Wizards, Towns scored 25 points with 12 boards, though, hitting just one three in seven attempts.
Timberwolves vs. Knicks Head to Head
Both teams defended their court last year, with the T-Wolves winning 117-100 and the Knicks 112-106.
Timberwolves vs. Knicks Prediction
All the home team’s players are pretty much healthy, while the Timberwolves’ frontcourt isn’t. Rudy Gobert and Randle might miss this one, so we pick the Knicks to triumph.
