Mavericks vs. Timberwolves odds, predictions, how to watch

The Dallas Mavericks will be looking to snap their two-game losing streak on Monday night as they return home to face Minnesota Timberwolves in a massive game. Dallas is just 1.5 games ahead of Minnesota as the two teams square off twice this week. The Nuggets and Timberwolves are currently tied in the standings with one of the three teams headed for the play-in tournament.

Minnesota has won ten of their last 11 games, and they present a difficult matchup. Superstar Luka Doncic missed each of the first two meetings this season, which the Mavericks and Timberwolves split. Winning the season series could be a key tiebreaker, so Monday’s game is a must-win for both teams.

Fans will not want to miss the contest, so here is a look at how to watch, the odds, predictions, and more.

Dallas Mavericks vs. Minnesota Timberwolves: Injury report

The Mavs ruled out Tim Hardaway Jr. (foot) and Theo Pinson (finger) on the NBA’s official injury report, but they are the only two players listed. Reggie Bullock is set to return after missing four games with a personal issue, and Spencer Dinwiddie will be back after sitting in the Mavericks' last contest.

The Timberwolves listed Karl-Anthony Towns as questionable with a forearm contusion, and Naz Reid as probable with back spasms, but fans should expect both big men to play. Jaden McDaniels (ankle) and McKinley Wright IV (G League) will both miss Monday’s game.
