The Minnesota Timberwolves have already split two games with the Jazz, so breaking the tie is crucial for playoff seeding and it would bring the two teams closer in the standings as Minnesota trails Utah by 2.5 games for the sixth spot in the West.
With a starting lineup of KAT, Wiggins, Culver, Okogie, and Covington, the Wolves must play fast in transition especially off of defensive reabounds while Gobert is 94 feet away from the basket. Outside of Gobert, the Jazz play a small lineup which will allow the Wolves to finish strong in transition.
