The San Antonio Spurs<\/a> and Minnesota Timberwolves<\/a> face off in the second round of the NBA Playoffs to decide who will move on to the Western Conference Finals.<\/p>\n

The Timberwolves are heading into this series a bit light, with guard Donte DiVincenzo<\/a> missing the entirety of the series with a torn Achilles and star Anthony Edwards<\/a> potentially slated to miss time with a hyperextended knee.<\/p>\n

In his third season of NBA play, Victor Wembanyama<\/a> has finally gotten a taste of playoff basketball. It’s evident that he enjoys these games, after leading the Spurs to a 4-1 series win over the Portland Trail Blazers<\/a> in the opening round. In the final two games against Portland, he averaged 6.5 blocks, along with 22 points, 13 rebounds, and three assists.<\/p>\n

Minnesota needs Edwards to return as soon as possible to have a real shot of winning four games against the team with the league’s second-best regular-season record. The emergence of Ayo Dosunmu<\/a> has been a welcome sight to see for Timberwolves fans, but their X-factor this series will be Rudy Gobert<\/a>. The 7-foot-1 Frenchman will be tasked with guarding his countryman Wembanyama. If he can limit his damage, the Timberwolves may be able to tread water for a bit.<\/p>\n

During the season, the Timberwolves won two of their three matchups against the Spurs. San Antonio<\/a> won the most recent meeting on January 17.<\/p>\n
