After three months of hiatus, NBA fans finally rejoiced as NBA basketball returns. The NBA preseason gives players an opportunity to get up to speed for the long season ahead. And the fans also benefit, as they can watch their beloved team prepare for the first time in three months. The Dallas Mavericks and the Minnesota Timberwolves played each other at the Etihad Arena on October 5th.

The Timberwolves won the hard-fought game, even without their star man Anthony Edwards against the Mavs. The two teams will face each other once again later today, as the Mavs look to bounce back from the loss.

Will Ant Edwards play Today?

Timberwolves and the Mavericks played out a thrilling match at the Etihad Arena, UAE. The game ended 111-99 in favor of the Wolves, with Karl Anthony Towns scoring 20 points, most for the Wolves. The Mavs gave minutes to both their stars, Kyrie and Luka. Luka Doncic starred for the Mavs, as he out-scored everyone during the game with 25 points. But the Timberwolves star player, Anthony Edwards, missed the game because of an ankle injury he suffered during practice.
