This year when they are the visiting squad, the opposition's starting SGs have averaged 1.3 three-pointers per game (lowest in the NBA) vs. the Minnesota Timberwolves, making this a challenging matchup.The 6th-slowest pace road offense in the league over the last 5 games has been the Spurs.The Timberwolves have played at the 4th-most sluggish tempo in the NBA over the last 15 games, which should lead to fewer plays for the San Antonio Spurs.The Spurs have been the 3rd-worst offensive rebounding offense in the NBA over the last 5 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them can therefore reduce extra opportunities for scoring and assists).Devin Vassell ought to see a decline in output across the board considering being on the road in this game.
