Minnesota Timberwolves vs. Los Angeles Lakers Outlook: Will LA Recreate History?

The month of October 2017 will become an exciting from day one as the Lakers get on with 10 different teams including the Timberwolves of Minnesota. Recalling the magic of the previous season where fans witnessed a spectacular game between the LA team and Minnesotans as they indulge once again in the fall. The Lakers might have overlooked the deed of tanking over the previous comps seeing their trio of consecutive victories after November 2016. That time was the budding steps for the team.

Finest of NBA

With the Los Angeles cluster making a tongue-in-cheek conquest above the Kings of Sacramento last week with 98/94, the Lakers made a pushover to 24/55 which makes them way ahead of the Phoenix Suns in the tank spree for the second-nastiest trace in the entire NBA union. The contenders present at the turf do not have anything to do with the probabilities of acquiring the best player, and hence they anticipate an initial 4-game victory binge of 2017 on Sunday as they play against the Wolves of Minnesota for the second time for this season.

A Familiar Milieu

The Minnesotan team’s rear boundary line starts the lineup with Ricky Rubio, and this player’s performance is well-known to the LA boys. Rick is famous for making passes more instead of getting scores; however, when both teams clashed on March in Minnesota, the 26-year old Spaniard made a record-cracking 33 points with the addition of ten supports. Of late, his performance has been outstanding as he showed tremendous growth within the past few sessions. In the overall nineteen he has played for since the beginning of this season, he made an average of almost 5 rebounds, 10.3 assists and 17.4 points.

Fans are familiar with Ricky’s impeccable passing skills but he has been showing signs of jumping his shots which was never seen before in his calling. The timber team of Minnesota do not lack proficiency and possess two strapping point guards as a backing. However, the backups Kris Dunn and Tyus Jones have not shown much progress despite entailing much propaganda of emerging as game starters for the NBA but there is yet a lot to expect from them.

Parallel Connections

The Timberwolves guys are apparently going to face the hurled of competing against the LA team’s point guard. Akin to Ricky, D’Angelo Russell also gave a superb display of the competitive spirit during the previous playoffs. Russell has made a steady two-figure scoring for nineteen out of the twenty-one games in tandem with the Los Angeles Lakers in addition to 5.0 assists and an average of 18.8 points. Jordan Clarkson from the Lakers will play parallel with D’Angelo Russell, David Nwaba, and Tyler Ennis; a lot is being expected from them this time too. The team made a stupendous three-game back-to-back win under the leadership of head coach Luke Walton.

Busy Week Ahoy!

It will be a busy session for the Timberwolves as the LA Lakers preserve their defense really well with Andrew Wiggins and Karl Towns. These two brilliant players, especially Karl-Anthony emerged as the undisputed NBA Rookie for the 2016 season and became the nexus of the show at an immensely tender age. The twenty-one year old Karl has diligently made it each game for 2017 and comes up with an average score of 24.9 points with a shoot rate of 53.7% and 12.1 rebounds on the green turf. He also has made twin-figure tallies for every comp in the current season albeit one incident in November against the Pelicans of New Orleans where he made a trifling nine.

Winning Situation with Betting

As October dawns with a spree of top-notch NBA Preseason, there is no doubt that fans will make a beeline for the bookmakers. Indeed, the sport attracts a hefty amount of bettors each year with numbers gradually increasing in every season. Such diligence showed on behalf of the punters also makes the path for newbie bettors who are more than interested in playing with the veterans. Online sports betting with genuine betting sites such as Betway prove as an idyllic cushion for prospective bettors. These sites not only reveal the odds for players and teams, but also deliver accurate predictions for the enlightenment and benefit of rookie punters.

Joining Up with Ingram

Right after Towns’ impeccable performance comes the twenty-two year-old Andrew Wiggins who has conjured up a healthy two-digit scoring spree in successive forty-four comps. Furthermore, the previous trio of seasons has been as promising as Towns with Andrew averaging with 23.5 for each game. Also neatly tucked under his sleeve are 2.3 assists with 4.1 rebounds, which is quite parallel to Karl-Anthony’s 24.9 average score.

The Canadian Timberwolves player is impeccably talented but team trainer Tom Thibodeau wishes to extract a lot more from the young gun. Lakers’ player Julius Randle is all in possibility to face the duo of Towns and Wiggins just as Brandon Ingram would do for his team mates. Ingram made the news headlines on last week’s win as he paved his path to a lordly 25 score with shooting ten out of fourteen on the greens.
