Sacramento Kings vs Minnesota Timberwolves Match Prediction & Analysis

Ant-Man is officially back. Through his performance on Friday night, Anthony Edwards once again showed the entire basketball world why he is considered as one of the best players in today’s NBA. The Kings are sorely missing Domantas Sabonis, who remains sidelined due to a rib injury, on both ends of the court. This was clearly visible on Friday night. They, however, do have Zach LaVine back. Without Sabonis, it is now up to the rest of the Sacramento players to step up and deliver.

For the Kings to have any hopes of winning against Minnesota, defense needs to be at its absolute best. If Anthony Edwards takes over the game as he has done so many times in his career, the Kings could be in for a long night. The game is slated for Nov 10th at 7:30 AM IST.
