The next game day in the NBA will begin with a modest confrontation, "Minnesota" will go to visit "Detroit". The game of these teams will take place on May 12 at 02: 00 Moscow time. Our portal has prepared a forecast for this meeting for you.
Detroit Pistons»
"Detroit has a lot of experienced players in the squad who are able to solve serious problems. While Detroit is failing, the team rarely wins and is in the last place in the Eastern Conference. Recently, "Detroit" clearly began to finish the season, losing in every meeting. So they lost to Dallas at home, Charlotte at home and away, after which they managed to beat Memphis, but in the last game they lost to Chicago.
Minnesota Timberwolves»
The composition of the "Minnesota" is clearly weak and does not even reach the middle of the league. Young players are not yet ready to solve problems in the NBA, and there are simply no stars or even ordinary leaders for the team to follow. Now the Wolves began to show excellent basketball, brightening up the season in the end. However, they gave out a series of defeats in recent meetings, which was interrupted in the last match by an away victory over Orlando.
Injuries and disqualifications:
- Injuries:
-
Detroit - Smith (knee injury), McGruder (elbow injury), Ellington (injury unknown).
Minnesota - Beasley (muscle injury), Culver (ankle injury).
Statistics and figures
- The last match between these teams ended with the victory of "Minnesota" 111: 101.

Forecast
The clear favorite in this confrontation looks like "Minnesota", which at the end of the season shows a confident game. Detroit has been terrible on defense all season, but it looks good on offense. Still, for me, the "wolves" that have gained momentum look more preferable here.
