After securing a much-needed shorthanded win on Friday night against the young Houston Rockets, the Golden State Warriors will continue their five-game homestand with a contest against the Minnesota Timberwolves that could have playoff implications.
Both the Warriors (30-30) and Timberwolves (31-31) are sitting near the bottom of the Western Conference’s tight playoff puzzle. Each team will have the chance to gain a game over the other and climb the standings. The Warriors are at No. 7 with the Timberwolves right behind them at No. 8.
