In a six-game NBA schedule this Sunday, the
Minnesota Timberwolves and
Golden State Warriors will face each other in a heart-stopping matchup. In principle, the stars of the game will be
Anthony Edwards and
Stephen Curry, although the former, like Rody Gobert, is questionable at this time to play the game.
The Warriors will serve as visitors in one of the toughest arenas in the NBA this season. The Bay Area franchise is in dire need of wins. They find themselves in 10th place in the Western Conference with a 36-33 record, and with a serious chance of falling out of the playoffs, as the Houston Rockets come in right behind like a shot, 11th at 35-35 after winning their last eight games.
The Timberwolves, meanwhile, are still in the fight for the lead in the West. They are currently 3rd with a record of 48-22, and ahead of them are the Denver Nuggets, 2nd with 50-21, and the Oklahoma City Thunder at the top of the table, with a 49-20 balance.
