The Minnesota Timberwolves play host to the Memphis Grizzlies, at Target Center on Sunday afternoon.

The Timberwolves (7-9) have won three games straight since the trade that sent Jimmy Butler to the 76ers. The first win of the three came before the new arrivals joined the team, but the next two wins came with much thanks to Dario Saric and Robert Covington. Andrew Wiggins has also picked up his game, with 23 points in both his last two outings, while he is averaging 17.7 points per game. Karl-Anthony Towns has also been solid recently, averaging 22.5 points, 13.4 rebounds and 2.0 blocks, over his last 10 games, including a 39-point, 19-rebound performance a few games back. The Timberwolves sit 13th place in the crowded West. This marks the fourth game of a five-game home stand for the Timberwolves, who are 7-1 at home so far.

Meanwhile, the Grizzlies (9-5) have been off to a great start to the season, already pulling off many impressive wins over tough opponents. They have won their last two games in a row, and are 7-3 in their last 10 games. However, they are just 3-4 on the road so far this season. Jarern Jackson Jr. had a huge night in the Grizzlies' last outing, with 27 points, six rebounds, four steals and two blocks. Jackson Jr. has been off to a good start in his rookie season, averaging 12.7 points, 4.9 rebounds and 1.3 assists per game. Mike Conley has been huge for Memphis, averaging 19.1 points, 5.6 assists and 3.2 rebounds per game, while Marc Gasol is averaging 16.1 points, 9.0 rebounds and 3.9 assists. The Grizzlies are one of the best defensive teams in the league, as they hold opponents to a league-low 101.8 points per game.
