The Memphis Grizzlies have won three straight games. We caught up with Jake Peterson from The Sports Daily’s Howlin’ T-Wolf for his take on tonight’s game.

The Memphis Grizzlies are finally making their way back home after a four-game road trip. After a blunder against the Milwaukee Bucks, the Grizzlies rattled off three impressive wins over an impressive Jazz team, the best version of the Clippers and a depleted Mavericks squad.

Now, the Memphis Grizzlies are looking to carry on their success against the Minnesota Timberwolves. So far in this young season, these teams have matched up twice. The first game, the season opener, was an exciting 102-98 victory for the Grizz. In their second game, the Grizzlies rested Marc Gasol and Mike Conley and got stomped 116-80.

Hopefully, we see both teams at full strength for this game. Marc Gasol and Mike Conley have bounced back this season, both averaging north of 19 points. On the other end, the Minnesota Timberwolves young trio of Andrew Wiggins (27.4), Karl-Anthony Towns (22.3) and Zach LaVine (18.8) have lit up the scoreboards.

Before tonight’s game, I had the chance to talk to Jake Peterson from The Sports Daily’s Howlin’ T-Wolf to hear this thoughts on this match-up.
