What to Know

Having just played yesterday, the Golden State Warriors will get right back to it and host the Minnesota Timberwolves at 10:00 p.m. ET on Friday at Chase Center. Coming in fresh off a win as the underdog, the Warriors will stroll into this one as the favorite.

Having struggled with five defeats in a row, the Warriors finally turned things around against the Rockets on Thursday. They secured a 99-93 W over Houston.

The Warriors relied on the efforts of Jonathan Kuminga, who went 13 for 22 en route to 33 points plus six rebounds, and Andrew Wiggins, who almost dropped a double-double on 23 points and nine rebounds. What's more, Wiggins also posted a 75% three-point shooting accuracy, which is the highest he's posted since back in February.

Even though they won, the Warriors struggled to work together and finished the game with only 19 assists. That's the fewest assists they've posted since back in October.

Meanwhile, the Timberwolves waltzed into their matchup on Wednesday with two straight wins... but they left with three. They put the hurt on Los Angeles with a sharp 108-80 victory. With Minnesota ahead 59-32 at the half, the contest was all but over already.

Golden State's win bumped their record up to 13-8. As for Minnesota, they now have a winning record of 11-10.

Keep an eye on the arc in Friday's game: The Warriors have made nailing deep shots look easy this year this season, having averaged 15.3 threes per game. However, it's not like the Timberwolves struggle in that department as they've been averaging 15.1. Given these competing strengths, it'll be interesting to see how their clash plays out.

The Warriors came up short against the Timberwolves when the teams last played back in March, falling 114-110. Will the Warriors have more luck at home instead of on the road?
