The Brooklyn Nets face off against the Minnesota Timberwolves tonight. The Nets are coming off a surprising loss to the Los Angeles Lakers. Despite the return of Kevin Durant, they weren’t able to defeat the Lakers, who were without LeBron James and Anthony Davis.

James Harden is currently sidelined, and this is a big loss for the Nets. Fans will have to wait a little bit longer to see the big three take the court once again.

The Timberwolves, on the other hand, have been extremely poor this year. Currently, the Wolves have the worst record in the league, once again being one of the underperformers. Karl-Anthony Towns and D’Angelo Russell haven’t impressed much during the season, whereas Anthony Edwards has been playing really well, becoming one of the front runners for Rookie of the Year since LaMelo Ball’s injury.

With that in mind, take a look at the Brooklyn Nets taking on the Minnesota Timberwolves

Brooklyn Nets vs Minnesota Timberwolves – Prediction

Surprisingly, the Nets are coming into this game with a loss, while the Timberwolves are coming off the back of a win. However, the difference in quality between the two teams is just too much. The return of Kevin Durant means that the Nets have one of the best players in the NBA on their team, who can carry the offensive load for them.
