According to NBA news, the Timberwolves have faced many challenges recently because of the loss of several important players one after another before the upcoming play-in game against the Lakers. This is a less optimistic situation for the Timberwolves, but for the Lakers, it can greatly reduce the pressure. Even if the existing group of players are on the court, the Timberwolves are still affected in terms of coordination and lineup adjustment, and therefore do not have more advantages than the Lakers. Therefore, the additional game on April 12 will be a quite nerve-wracking and anticipated game. Minnesota Timberwolves Tröja

Not long ago, there was an infighting among Timberwolves' players, which resulted in Rudy Gobert not being able to play in a Timberwolves' jersey. This bad behavior made sure that the Timberwolves would not let him play in the subsequent games again. The Timberwolves will not allow Rudy Gobert to play again after the game, as Kyle Anderson, who was hit by Rudy Gobert's fist, will also be affected emotionally and mentally. In addition, Jaden McDaniels suffered a fractured hand and is currently in indefinite treatment and recuperation, and will not be able to participate in the game against the Lakers. These situations indicate that the Timberwolves players are in a grumpy mood, perhaps due to the poor performance. I hope the team can adjust back as soon as possible, both emotionally and in terms of personnel changes, otherwise the chances of winning the next matchup with the Lakers are really not great.
