Before Betting on Phoenix Suns vs. Minnesota Timberwolves Game 1
KAT is back, but we don’t know the state of his body and his game. Minnesota’s last game of the regular season was against the Suns at home, and they lost 125-106. Towns scored only 10 points in 29 minutes and had six boards. To be honest, none of the Wolves’ players had a decent performance, apart from Rudy Gobert.
The Frenchman posted 21 buckets with seven boards, 7-for-9 from the field. We can’t wait to see Anthony Edwards against the Suns’ backcourt. The 22-year-old dropped 25.9 points each night with 5.4 boards and 5.1 assists.
As for the Suns, they really accelerated at the finish of the season. They eventually managed to escape from the play-in zone and secure a direct place in the postseason, beating the Clippers, Kings and the T-Wolves all on the road. Durant-Booker duo scores more than 54 points per game, with both of these guys dropping 27.1 points per game exactly.
Another guy who is there to step in is Bradley Beal. The All-Star shooting guard hits 18.2 points, but his five assists are making quite a difference because he plays much differently than in Washington. He distributes the ball fast, while in the moments when there is an opportunity to shoot or attack the rim, Beal is merciless.

The Suns look like a team that is in better shape. Their injury problems are solved, while on the other hand, T-Wolves have yet to see what’s the state with KAT. Despite the home-court edge, we would pick Phoenix to win this event.
