The Timberwolves are currently trailing 3-1 in this playoff series, and they are coming off a close 128-126 loss. In order to keep their season alive, the Minnesota squad will need a great performance from their star guard Anthony Edwards. He leads the team in points and assists, but he struggled offensively last game. With this in mind, Edwards will look to improve his play tonight.

Three Oklahoma City players scored at least 21 points last game: Chet Holmgren, Jalen Williams, and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. These three players combined to score 95 points, so they will try to continue their offensive success tonight.

Gilgeous-Alexander led the Oklahoma City offense with 40 points and 10 assists, so he will be a key player to watch this evening.
