When your record is 14-and-40 you look for small victories.
When the Milwaukee Bucks visit Minneapolis for a 3:30 p-m game this afternoon (April 14th), the hometown Timberwolves will be seeking their fourth straight win on the homecourt.
The tipoff time was moved up from 7:00 PM due to the civil unrest in the Twin Cities area.
The cross-border rivals have met once before this season with the Bucks roaring to a 139-112 victory on February 23rd.
It’s not a sure thing that Giannis Antetokounmpo will be able to play for Milwaukee after missing five games.
If he’s ready to go, beating Minnesota will be a lot easier. Despite winning their last three home games, the Timberwolves are still just 9-17 at home.
