Still no Chris Paul or Tyson Chandler, but the Hornets will try build on Friday’s win when they face off against the Minnesota Timberwolves today at the Arena.
With a tough schedule recently, the T-Wolves have lost 5 of 6, including a 17-point defeat to the Rockets last night in Houston. Al Jefferson went for 36 points and 22 boards in that one. Overall, Minnesota are 17-32 on the season and 9-16 on the road. They beat us up North a little more than two weeks ago, killing us inside without West and Chandler.
