Without a doubt, this series is one of the best of this first round of playoffs, and now it moves to the Target Center, where the Minnesota Timberwolves will look to be strong against the Los Angeles Lakers, who will seek revenge after losing one of two games in LA.

Los Angeles Lakers vs Minnesota Timberwolves: Under 207

Although this series features players like Anthony Edwards, LeBron James, and Luka Doncic, the defenses were what made the difference in the first two games of the series, and that’s probably how it will be in the remaining games. The Wolves have one of the best defenses in the league, and they have already shown they can stop a strong team like the Lakers; however, that brings clear sacrifices in attack. All the matchups between these teams this season have covered the Under, and we expect it to be the same here.

Injuries for Los Angeles Lakers:

M. Kleber Out

Injuries for Minnesota Timberwolves:

Los Angeles Lakers vs Minnesota Timberwolves: Wolves -2

Although they lost in Game 2, the Wolves did their job in Los Angeles by winning a game, and they know it will be important for them to win both games at home, so they will probably push to the max from the start, because if they give James and Doncic any opportunity, it won’t be cheap. The Wolves are a solid team in all their lines, and with their fans supporting them, we expect them to take the victory.

Los Angeles Lakers vs Minnesota Timberwolves Prediction

This will be a very close game from beginning to end, in which the defenses will be the protagonists once again; however, considering that it will be played in Minnesota, we are confident that the home team can be firm and take an important victory.
