The Philadelphia 76ers take on the Minnesota Timberwolves this evening in a game that feels like its about more than just wins or losses. That’s because for the first time since trading for Jimmy Butler, the Sixers will play against Dario Saric (unfortunately, Robert Covington will not be playing in the game as he’s been sidelined with an ankle injury since January 2nd).
The Timberwolves, fresh off of a win over the New Orleans Pelicans on Saturday, come into town looking to improve upon their 21-22 record, which would have them on the outside looking in if the playoffs started today.
