As week five begins the New York Knicks are on the road to play their hosts the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Both teams last played on Saturday with the Knicks defeating the Hornets 122-108 while the Wolves took a clutch time 121-120 victory over the Pelicans.

Season Series

New York holds the all-time record having won 35 of the 64 meetings between the clubs. Last season the teams split their two meetings each winning on the road.

New York Knicks

You can only play the teams on the schedule and in the case of the Knicks they’ve benefitted from an easy starting slate by beating the teams they should.

That includes a run of six out of the last seven although they’ve yet to beat a team with a record over .500.

This begs the question if their key category rankings are a bit of fool’s gold. Tom Thibodeau always has his squad dialed in defensively and they’ve used this easy stretch of opponents to find an offensive rhythm.

But now their next three matches will offer a bit of a litmus test as they face the Wolves, Heat, and Suns (with Booker back).

Knicks Stats

New York ranks 10th on offense (114.9) and is fifth on defense (108.3) while they register a plus +6.6 net differential ranking fourth overall.

The Knicks are one of the better bets performing well with a 9-3-1 against the spread offering to date.

Knicks Injury Report

To summarize the injury report…

  • Evan Fournier, SG (questionable — ankle)
  • Quentin Grimes, SG (questionable — wrist)

Minnesota Timberwolves

After trailing the Pelicans for the majority of the match on Saturday the Wolves erased a 15-point deficit. They took the lead in clutch time despite Anthony Edwards watching from the bench having fouled out.

Then they did what Minnesota fans have become accustomed to by locking down defensively to capture their ninth win of the season.

And with that victory, the Wolves have propelled themselves atop the West’s ladder to start week 5 after the Nuggets and Mavericks both lost on Sunday.

Timberwolves Stats

Minnesota ranks 14th on offense (112.4), and third defensively (107.0) with the sixth-best net rating of plus 5.3 after 12 matches.

The Wolves are riding the middle with a 6-6 record against the spread this season.

Timberwolves Injury Report

To summarize the injury report…

  • Jordan McLaughlin, PG (OUT indefinitely knee)
  • Jaylen Clark, SF (downgraded to OUT Achilles)

Free New York Knicks vs. Minnesota Timberwolves NBA Prediction:”

This match features two clubs both seeking to be in the playoff mix this season, and make deep runs and on track to reach their objective. The question is how much of their success is based on scheduling luck and how much is reflective of who they are.

In the case of the Wolves, they feel like a legit contender albeit without much experience but the Knicks for as good as they’ve been still feel like a middling team benefiting from who they’ve played so far.

With that, I’ll take the Wolves to win and cover.
