With the NBA All-Star break approaching, Thursday’s five-game slate marks the final action before the pause, highlighted by an 8:30 p.m. OKC Thunder vs Minnesota Timberwolves showdown at Target Center in Minneapolis.

The Thunder enter the matchup riding a seven-game winning streak, with each victory coming by double digits. Their latest triumph was a gritty 115-101 comeback win over the Miami Heat, erasing a 21-point deficit to secure their 44th victory of the season.

The Timberwolves, meanwhile, are looking to bounce back from a tough 103-101 loss to the Milwaukee Bucks, who were without All-Stars Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard.

Minnesota struggled offensively, shooting just 37.9% as a team. Anthony Edwards led the way with 28 points but endured a rough shooting night, going 10-for-33 from the field and 4-for-17 from beyond the arc.
