Chris Hine’s preview:
Opening bell: The Wolves head into another set of back-to-back games vs. San Antonio on Tuesday and Memphis on Wednesday. The Spurs are 4-17 in their last 21 games, but one of those games was a win over the Wolves in San Antonio on Jan. 27. The Wolves announced Tuesday afternoon that Karl-Anthony Towns would miss the game for personal reasons, adding a potential hurdle for the Wolves in their quest for an easy win. This is only the second game Towns has missed this season, after he was out for a road win at Sacramento on Dec. 23
Watch him: Victor Wembanyama is prone to do something special any time he is on the floor. At Toronto on Feb. 12, Wembanyama had a triple-double with 27 points, 14 rebounds and 10 blocks. It was the first time a player had a triple-double with blocks since Clint Capela did it against the Wolves on Jan. 22, 2021. The 7-4 Wembanyama has had five blocks in each of his last three games.
