The Minnesota Timberwolves will look to remain unbeaten when they take on the Cleveland Cavaliers in Cleveland. The game tips off at 7 PM ET and will air on DAZN-MIN, WUAB, Rock Entertainment Sports Network, and DAZN-CLE.

The Timberwolves are 3-0 to begin the year, blowing out the Miami Heat, Orlando Magic, and Toronto Raptors and looking like an absolute force on both ends of the court. They played on Sunday night, taking down the Raptors by a score of 117-94 in their home opener. They are back on the road for one game before returning home for two games.

The Cavaliers bounced back from blowing an opening night loss to the Philadelphia 76ers by defeating the Brooklyn Nets in their home opener. This starts a small two-game road trip for Cleveland.

This is the first meeting of the year between the two squads.

LaMelo Ball, Edwards, Jaden McDaniels, Jonathan Kuminga, and Rudy Gobert has been the starting lineup in all three games for the Timberwolves this season.
