The Minnesota Timberwolves (21-18) are set to host the Golden State Warriors (19-20) on January 15, 2025, at the Target Center in Minneapolis. The Timberwolves have shown resilience, winning four of their last five games, including a recent 120-106 victory over the Washington Wizards. Anthony Edwards has been instrumental, notably scoring 41 points in the win against the Wizards. Defensively, Minnesota has been solid, holding opponents to 106 points or fewer in four of their last five games.

In contrast, the Warriors have faced challenges, losing four of their last five games. Their most recent defeat was a close 104-101 loss to the Toronto Raptors. Stephen Curry continues to lead the team, averaging over 26 points in recent games, but the team has struggled offensively, lacking consistent scoring options beyond Curry. 

 

 

Rudy Gobert Over 10.5 Rebounds

Rudy Gobert has been a dominant force on the boards for the Minnesota Timberwolves during the 2024-25 NBA season. As of January 14, 2025, he is averaging 10.5 rebounds per game, ranking him among the league’s top rebounders. In addition to his rebounding prowess, Gobert contributes 1.7 blocks per game, showcasing his defensive impact. 

I love this spot for Rudy Gobert to clean up on the glass. After having over 10 rebounds in three straight games he’s coming off a night where he only secured 4 rebounds against the Memphis Grizzlies. He has a favorable matchup in this one going against the Golden State Warriors who are giving up 53.6 rebounds per game to opposing teams which is the sixth most in the whole league.

Steph Curry Under 4.5 Three Pointers

As expected Steph Curry has been a prolific three-point shooter for the Golden State Warriors this season. He’s averaging 21.8 points per game, with a field goal percentage of 45.0% and a three-point shooting percentage of 40.8%. 

I understand it’s hard to fade Steph Curry when it comes to threes but I don’t like this matchup for him. The Timberwolves are known to slow down the pace of the game, limit opponents amount of possessions, and put emphasis on the defensive side of the ball. The Timberwolves are only giving up 12.7 three-pointers per game to opposing teams which is the fourth fewest in the whole league. 

Anthony Edwards Over 25.5 Points

Anthony Edwards has been a standout scorer for the Minnesota Timberwolves. He’s averaging 25.4 points per game. In a recent game on January 13, 2025, Edwards delivered a remarkable performance, scoring 41 points, with 20 of those points coming in the fourth quarter, leading the Timberwolves to a 120-106 victory over the Washington Wizards. 

It seems like Anthony Edwards steps up when he plays in big games and I expect him to have another great night in this one going against the Warriors. This Timberwolves team has had to rely on him heavily when it comes to scoring the ball due to inconsistencies from the role players on his team. The Warriors will have their hands full all night trying to contain Edwards.
