As the Minnesota Timberwolves prepare to face off against the Boston Celtics at TD Garden, fans are eager to see if their team can continue their impressive performance on the road. The Timberwolves have been showcasing a strong game recently, with a notable victory over the Orlando Magic where they dominated with a 113-92 scoreline.

Despite this win, consistency has been somewhat of an issue for Minnesota. In their encounter with the Dallas Mavericks, they fell short by seven points in a high-scoring affair that ended 115-108 against them. Although they managed to keep up in terms of scoring and assists, turnovers and defensive lapses proved costly.


However, redemption came swiftly when they outplayed the Houston Rockets with a convincing 122-95 win. The Timberwolves' offense was firing on all cylinders as evidenced by their offensive rating of 119.8 and true shooting percentage rounding up to an impressive 63 percent.


The upcoming clash at TD Garden will test Minnesota's resilience and ability to maintain their offensive momentum while tightening up defensively against a formidable Celtics team that knows how to control its home court advantage.


Fans can catch this exciting matchup live on January 11th at midnight Eastern Time (ET). For those following from Central Time (CT), tune in earlier due to time zone differences. Broadcasts will be available through NBCS-BOS channel 630 for home viewers and BSN channel 668 for those cheering from afar for the Timberwolves.
