Game Preview

Already set to be a top-four seed in the upcoming playoffs and searching for the Western Conference’s No. 1 seed for the second time in franchise history, the Minnesota Timberwolves will need a short memory heading into a test against the host Los Angeles Lakers on Sunday.

The Timberwolves (53-24) enter Sunday’s game off their worst offensive performance of the season, when they were humbled 97-87 by the host Phoenix Suns on Friday after falling behind 15-0 to open the game. They had 14 of their 19 turnovers in the first half.

“It’s been a little bit of a habit for us, high turnovers in the first quarter,” Timberwolves head coach Chris Finch said. “That’s why we have been struggling to score out of the gate. And then we fought the game the whole time. … It was a complete breakdown offensively.”
