Detroit Pistons vs Minnesota Timberwolves Predicted Starting Lineups and Depth Chart for Mar. 30 | NBA 2024-25 season

The Minnesota Timberwolves play Sunday night’s game at the Target Center, welcoming the Detroit Pistons, before traveling for their last road trip for the 2024-2025 regular season. Cade Cunningham and co. already won the only other matchup between these two teams earlier in January, making tonight’s clash a must-win for the hosts to even the season series at one game apiece.

The first Wolves-Pistons clash of the 2024-2025 season took place at the Little Caesars Arena on January 4. The contest witnessed Anthony Edwards erupting for a season-high performance, scoring 53 points on 16-31 FG and 10-15 3FG. Unfortunately, Edwards didn’t receive substantial help from his teammates, resulting in JB Bickerstaff’s boys securing a 119-105 victory.

Cunningham led the charge for Detroit, scoring 40 points just above 50% FG. Tobias Harris (16 points, 11 rebounds) and Ausar Thompson (10 points, 10 rebounds) also had notable contributions, with both starters recording double-doubles.

The Pistons are coming off a huge win against the Cleveland Cavaliers, playing the #1 Eastern Conference team without Cunningham. Despite the convincing win, the Wolves will remain favorites to emerge victorious in case the first-time All-Star sits out for a second consecutive matchup.
