This year, the opposition's starting PGs have shot 50.2% on field goals (best in the NBA) vs. the Spurs, making this a favorable matchup.The Timberwolves have played at the 4th-most up-tempo tempo in the league over the last 10 games.The Minnesota Timberwolves will likely see a rise in opportunities in this game from sharing the court with the 10th-speediest pace-of-play offense in the NBA over the last 25 games (the Spurs).The Timberwolves have been the 10th-best offensive rebounding offense in the NBA over the last 5 games as the away team (offensive rebounds maintain possession and can therefore lead to additional opportunities for scoring and assists).This year when they are on the road, the opposition's starting PGs have attempted 4.5 foul shots per game (8th-most in the league) vs. the Spurs, succeeding in their efforts to get to the charity stripe.
