While both teams played yesterday, one went into double OT and one got to rest most of its starters in the 4th quarter. You would think we have the edge!
By the way, the Lakers have the 15th rated defense in the league, 11th in opponent eFG%. I continue to be amazed at the youth-filled teams like Boston, Philly, LA, and Chicago outplaying the Wolves defensively. We don't have a single rookie or 2nd year guy in our rotation, yet we can't seem to get out of the bottom 5....
Offensively, it's a different story. LA is not good and hopefully their tired legs makes it even harder tonight.

To be fair the wolves are 14th in def rating since nov. 1st so the improvement is there

Thought the same thing about Andrew Wiggins. I have never seen him push the ball that hard, and it was the second game in a row where he's tossed a good lob to Jimmy Butler. As I type this, he just got a contested rebound and got fouled. I like his energy level to start this one.

There are (much) better options that are available in my mind, but Corey Brewer would be a worthwhile addition to our bench given that he's an energy player and wants to get out in transition, and he wouldn't cost much to pry from the Lakers.

Wig with a little extra tonight. I like it. It might have something. To do with his matchup. I like seeing it. They are definitely trying to push the pace a bit
