The New York Knicks are preparing to take on the Minnesota Timberwolves on Tuesday night, coming off a stellar victory over the Atlanta Hawks on Christmas day.
The Knicks feel rejuvenated after gaining several players back from the NBA’s health and safety protocols list. A myriad of players contracted the COVID-19 virus, but the Knicks are nearly at full strength while the Timberwolves are struggling to keep players healthy.
Just one day ago, the Wolves were down Karl-Anthony Towns, D’Angelo Russell, Anthony Edwards, Jarred Vanderbilt, Taurean Prince, and McKinley Wright due to Covid protocols. Both Patrick Beverley and Josh Okogie are expected to make a return barring any lasting symptoms.
