The Minnesota Timberwolves will visit the Los Angeles Lakers tonight in the NBA Play-In Tournament with the No. 7 seed and a date with the No. 2 seed Memphis Grizzlies on the line.
As we all know by now, the Wolves threw some costly punches that knocked out their two best defenders for tonight’s contest. Three-time NBA Defensive Player of the Year Rudy Gobert swung at Kyle Anderson on the Timberwolves bench during Sunday’s 113-108 win over the New Orleans Pelicans and earned himself a one-game suspension from the Wolves.
