The Minnesota Timberwolves haven't won a contest against the Orlando Magic since Jan. 4 of 2019, but they'll be looking to end the drought Sunday. The Timberwolves' road trip will continue as they head to Amway Center at 7 p.m. ET to face off against Orlando. Minnesota is hoping to patch up the holes in a defense that has allowed an average of 118.18 points per game.

Minnesota came up short against the Miami Heat this past Friday, falling 121-112. Center Karl-Anthony Towns (27 points) and small forward Anthony Edwards (25 points) were the top scorers for Minnesota.

Meanwhile, Orlando came up short against the Charlotte Hornets this past Friday, falling 122-112. A silver lining for the Magic was the play of shooting guard Dwayne Bacon, who had 26 points.
