The Minnesota Timberwolves are taking a road trip to face off against the Atlanta Hawks at 7:30 p.m. ET on Monday at State Farm Arena. The Hawks have the home-court advantage, but the Timberwolves are expected to win by 3.5 points.

The experts predicted the Timberwolves would be headed in after a victory, but the Warriors made sure that didn't happen. The Timberwolves took a 113-103 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Warriors on Saturday. Minnesota has now taken an 'L' in back-to-back games.

Despite their defeat, the Timberwolves saw several players rise to the challenge and make noteworthy plays. Rudy Gobert, who dropped a double-double on 18 points and 12 rebounds, was perhaps the best of all. Gobert had some trouble finding his footing against the Knicks on Thursday, so this was a step in the right direction.

Meanwhile, the Hawks' recent rough patch got a bit rougher on Saturday after their third straight loss. They lost to the Grizzlies at home by a decisive 128-112 margin. Atlanta was down 100-76 at the end of the third quarter, which was just too much to recover from.
