MIN Timberwolves vs PHX Suns Prediciton: What should we expect from this game?

Prediction for the NBA match which will take place on April 20. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

MIN Timberwolves

The Timberwolves took the third place in the Western Conference at the end of the regular season, which shows the progress of the team. Last season, Minnesota made it to the playoffs through the play-in round, received the eighth seed and was eliminated in the first round by Denver. Now, though, the team isn't guaranteed the opposite. At least the season series with Phoenix doesn't promise the Wolves anything good.

Note that today's Minnesota builds its game from defense. The Timberwolves finished the regular season as the league's best defense - 106.5 points allowed per game on average. 

PHX Suns

The Suns didn't guarantee themselves a first-round playoff spot until the last day of the regular season, and only a road win over Minnesota allowed them to qualify for the play-in round. And this victory was as confident as possible - 125:106.

In general, it should be said that Phoenix has fairly average game characteristics for the season, but the roster is so experienced that it can show a completely different level of basketball in the playoffs. The Suns, unlike Minnesota, among the main favorites of the starting playoffs in the West.

Expert Betting Tips

The regular season has shown that for Minnesota, Phoenix might be the most uncomfortable opponent they could face in the first round of the playoffs. The Suns clearly know how to neutralize the Wolves, and are able to do it, again referring to the results of face-to-face meetings in the regular season, both defensively and offensively. In general, in our opinion, it won't be a sensation if Phoenix regains home court advantage in the first game of the series.
