The Oklahoma City Thunder and Minnesota Timberwolves will tango again on Monday. These two teams battled it out on Sunday in Minnesota, seeing the Thunder walk away with a 130-123 win. Following that late night affair, the two hopped on a bird and landed in Oklahoma City to do it all over again tonight inside the Paycom Center.

A travel back-to-back is always grueling, but especially against the exact same team you just played. Each side viewing this as a scheduled loss and have to dig deep to find the grit and guts to pull this one out.

Given the nature of a back-to-back each team did not file an injury report on Monday afternoon, where both squads added a name to the report from yesterday's listings. Chet Holmgren will continue his post-injury trend of resting in back-to-backs as the OKC Thunder play it smart in his return to performance.
