The bruises are still fresh from yesterday’s matinee beat-down by the Hornets, and tonight the New York Knicks (22-22) host the Minnesota Timberwolves (21-22) in another tough tilt.
The Knicks are 6-4 in their last ten games, and their cold-weather foes are 5-5. This marks their second and final meeting of the regular season. New York won their first clash in December, 96-88, buoyed by a 14-point, 18-rebound performance from Mitchell Robinson. The Knicks were aided by an abundance of MIA Timberwolves, including Anthony Edwards, Taurean Prince, D’Angelo Russell, Karl-Anthony Towns, Jarred Vanderbilt, and McKinley Wright.
