NBA, 02:00h, last, 82. round of regular season
For NBA playoff most things are solved. But there are still teams that must play for win to catch playoff spot or better placement. One of them is OKC. They need win, while in same time Pelicans must lose match against Spurs. So here won't be any calculations from OKC.
Home team is very bad this season, only 16 wins and 65 losses until now. They are last placed in Western Conference and also they have worst record of whole league. They have big injuries problems through the whole season. In last few matches things are even worst for them. For this match Timberwolves will be without 6 players for sure: Dieng, Garnett, Neal, Pekovic, Rubio and Muhammad. Among all of them, there are also few more questionable players: Martin, Bennett and Budinger, while Hamilton is probable. This means that Minnesota currently in their roster have only 6 fully prepared players. One statement of Minnesota's coach before previous games is good for our pick. He said that none injured player will take part in last two games. So if this will also refer to newly injured players, Minnesota will be in huge problem with players for this match.
In this condition, even without Durant, OKC is huge favourite in this match. GL.
