Indiana Pacers vs Minnesota Timberwolves: Bennedict Mathurin and Karl-Anthony Towns are out, final injury report, official starting lineups for March 7
The Indiana Pacers play their first home game of March tonight as they host the Minnesota Timberwolves. Both teams are 2-2 in their last four games and are hoping to make up ground in the standings with about five weeks left in the campaign.
Minnesota blew out Indiana earlier this season, but the Pacers didn't have Tyrese Haliburton that night. The blue and gold are healthier than they were the last time they battled the Timberwolves, and the visitors are dealing with injury issues of their own.
