How to Watch Timberwolves vs Trail Blazers

Read More on Sports

The Timberwolves start their season with high hopes after making the Western Conference Finals two seasons in a row. As was the case last season, they’ll continue to rely heavily on the progression of Anthony Edwards, who looks every bit a superstar as was expected. In 2024-25, he averaged 27.6 points, 5.7 rebounds, 4.5 assists, and 1.2 steals, while improving his 3-point shooting percentage to a very respectable 39.5%.

Portland is hoping to turn the clock back a decade to when Damian Lillard carried the team to eight consecutive playoff berths, peaking in 2018-19 with a 53-game regular season win and a trip to the Western Conference Finals. Although Lillard will miss the on-court part of the 2025-26 season with an Achilles tear, he’s back home and will team with Jrue Holiday and Jerami Grant to provide veteran leadership to a young team.

This is a great NBA Basketball matchup that you will not want to miss; make sure to tune in and catch all the action.
