Julius Randle has averaged a terrific 23.0 points per game this season, quite a bit higher than his 19.1 points per game last season.The Timberwolves have been the 4th-highest scoring offense in the NBA over the last 20 games.This year when they have the home court advantage, the opposing team's starting PFs have averaged 6.5 3-point attempts per game (highest in the NBA) vs. the Grizzlies, creating a good matchup.The Timberwolves will likely see a spike in opportunities today from sharing the court with the 6th-quickest pace team in the league over the last 5 games (the Memphis Grizzlies).The matchup against the Grizzlies is a positive one for getting to the charity stripe; the other team's starting PFs have attempted a whopping 4.6 foul shots per game this year (5th-most in the league).
