The Minnesota Timberwolves visit the New Orleans Pelicans on November 6 in NBA Cup group play, with the Timberwolves at 6-3 and the Pelicans at 4-4. Minnesota’s recent success stems from strong team defense and contributions across the roster despite the absence of Anthony Edwards following right knee surgery, along with Donte DiVincenzo’s ongoing Achilles recovery. LaMelo Ball, Ayo Dosunmu, Jaden McDaniels, and Jonathan Kuminga have driven recent wins, including a victory over Houston. New Orleans enters on a four-game winning streak featuring overtime victories, powered by Zion Williamson and Dejounte Murray, but remains without Yves Missi and with Trey Murphy III listed as probable. The home matchup at Smoothie King Center highlights New Orleans’ offensive pace against Minnesota’s defensive efficiency.
