Minnesota Timberwolves vs Phoenix Suns Prediction: Phoenix has defensive potential

Prediction for the NBA Minnesota Timberwolves vs Phoenix Suns match which will take place on April 24th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Minnesota Timberwolves

The Timberwolves were at their best in their opening game against Phoenix. Chris Finch's team confirmed their status as the best defensive team of the season, allowing less than 100 points. On the offensive end, Anthony Edwards was the hero, scoring 33 points and hitting 4-of-8 from three-point range. Minnesota also held a 52:28 advantage on the boards. 

Phoenix Suns

The Suns lost the first meeting by a score of 95:120. But Kevin Durant still scored 31 points. But Devin Booker showed why being the main point guard in the playoffs still doesn't work for him - he only had 5 assists despite scoring 18 points.

Phoenix's first game against Minnesota showed that Frank Vogel's team needs to tighten up on the defensive end. Trying to win the series on offense will be unsuccessful.

Expert Betting Tips

Phoenix has defensive potential. Frank Vogel's team proved that time and again during the regular season. Unlike Dallas, whose lack of defense doomed them in the series against the Clippers, the Suns should not be written off too early against Minnesota. Phoenix will be better in the second game and at least make life difficult for the Timberwolves in their half of the court. We're going for a low-scoring affair.
