Timberwolves vs. Mavericks Western Conference Finals Preview

Defensive Battle Brewing in Timberwolves-Mavericks Series

All Eyes on Doncic and Edwards, But Defense Could Be the Key

The Western Conference Finals between the Minnesota Timberwolves and Dallas Mavericks is set to tip off on Wednesday, May 22nd. While all eyes will be on Luka Doncic and Anthony Edwards, the series could ultimately be decided by defense.

The Mavericks have the second-best record against the spread in the league (55-39, 58.5%), while the Timberwolves have struggled at home, losing their first two games of the Western Conference Finals.

According to WEB SportsLines, the Mavericks are favored to win Game 4 at -120 odds. The Timberwolves are listed as +100 underdogs.

The Timberwolves have a clear height advantage over the Mavericks, but Dallas has proven to be a tough matchup for Minnesota in the past.

The Mavericks were undermanned in most of their previous meetings with the Timberwolves this season, with Luka Doncic missing two of the games. In the one game that Doncic did play, the Mavericks won 118-110.

With Doncic healthy and playing at an MVP level, the Mavericks will be a tough opponent for the Timberwolves. However, Minnesota has the home-court advantage and will be looking to take a 3-1 lead in the series.

The Timberwolves-Mavericks series is expected to be a close one, and defense could ultimately be the deciding factor.
