Thunder vs. Timberwolves: Lineups, injury reports and broadcast info for Wednesday

The Oklahoma City Thunder play the Minnesota Timberwolves on Wednesday, and if you’re wondering how you can watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place.

This marks the season opener for both the Thunder (0-0) and the Timberwolves (0-0). The Thunder will have Shai Gilgeous-Alexander back in action after he missed the preseason while rehabbing a sprained MCL.

For the Timberwolves, this will mark the debut of their new frontcourt duo of Karl-Anthony Towns and Rudy Gobert.

“They’re big, obviously, with their new additions. They had a good run last year in the playoffs. A good, young team. It’ll be a good game tomorrow,” said Gilgeous-Alexander on Tuesday following practice. “One team will win and one team will lose. Hopefully, we’re on the good side of that.”
