Hawks vs. Timberwolves

Minnesota enters with high urgency following a blowout home loss yesterday, and they face an Atlanta team potentially missing its primary engine as leading scorer Jalen Johnson (questionable) joins the injury report alongside Dyson Daniels. With the Timberwolves’ elite defensive core fully intact and Anthony Edwards averaging nearly 30 PPG, they are positioned to dominate a Hawks unit that allows 118.4 points per game and lacks the interior depth to compete on the second night of a back-to-back.
