The Minnesota Timberwolves are in Salt Lake City to take on the 21-9 Utah Jazz on Thursday evening.  

However, for the game they are without several key players including two-time All-Star Karl-Anthony Towns.  

Towns was listed as out due to being in health and safety protocols (see tweet below from Timberwolves PR).  

Towns sent out a tweet before the game, and his post can be seen embedded below from his Twitter account. 

The tweet from Towns said: "Can’t catch a f*%@ing break!" 

The Timberwolves come into the game with a 15-16 record in their first 31 games of the season, and they had been on a four-game winning streak before losing to the Dallas Mavericks in Texas on Tuesday evening.  

The Jazz are 11-6 in 17 games at home this season.

  • STEPH AND THE WARRIORS ARE ON FIRE: The Golden State Warriors have not made the playoffs in two seasons, but that appears likely to change this season. They are on fire to start the season led by superstar guard Steph Curry and have one of the best records in the entire NBA. . CLICK HERE.
