Can Timberwolves Maintain Their Winning Streak at Target Center?

As the Minnesota Timberwolves prepare to host the Memphis Grizzlies at the Target Center, fans can anticipate a thrilling encounter. The Timberwolves have been on a formidable run, showcasing their dominance in recent games with an impressive record of 39 wins and only 16 losses. Their performance has been characterized by high-scoring quarters and a robust defense that has consistently outplayed their opponents.

In their last game against the Portland Trail Blazers, Minnesota's offense was unstoppable, putting up 128 points with an exceptional true shooting percentage of 63 percent. They dominated points in the paint with 66 and capitalized on second-chance opportunities by scoring 24 points from such plays. Defensively, they held Portland to just 91 points, demonstrating their ability to control both ends of the court.

The trend continued from previous games as well; two games ago against Portland again, they scored 121 points while maintaining a solid defensive rating of around 107. In another recent matchup against the LA Clippers, they matched this offensive output with another scoreline of 121 points while keeping their defensive intensity high.

One key aspect for Minnesota has been their bench contribution which has provided valuable support to maintain leads throughout these contests. Additionally, efficient ball handling is evident from their assist-to-turnover ratio which peaked at an impressive three in one game.

As we look ahead to February's leap day clash at Minneapolis' own Target Center – where home-court advantage could play a pivotal role – fans should expect nothing less than high energy and strategic gameplay from the Timberwolves as they aim to continue this winning momentum.

The upcoming game is scheduled for February 29th at half-past midnight (00:30) Central Time and can be watched live on ESPN (channel number:206), BSN (channel number:668), or BSSE (channel number:649).
