Minnesota Timberwolves vs San Antonio Spurs – Preview & Prediction (Nov. 30, 2025)

Game preview

The Timberwolves welcome the Spurs on November 30th, tip-off at 7:00 p.m. EST. Minnesota hit a rough patch earlier in the season but snapped a three-game skid with a dramatic comeback win over Boston, led by Anthony Edwards’ big night. They sit around the middle of the Western Conference and have shown they can be much better than that when things click.

Defensively Minnesota has been solid this season, while their offense still leans heavily on Edwards, who’s been the primary scoring threat. When he’s hot they’re tough to stop, though their overall production has dipped at times during recent losses.

The Spurs have surprised a lot of people with a strong start. They’ve picked up good wins recently and look organized on both ends even when missing key pieces. Their offensive numbers are impressive and, despite some absences, the roster has shown a lot of collective toughness and depth.

Head-to-head, Minnesota has had the upper hand lately, winning the last three meetings heading into this matchup.

Injuries, lineup notes and prediction

Injury status is a major factor here. Minnesota comes into the game without notable concerns, while San Antonio is dealing with absences: Victor Wembanyama and Stephon Castle are out, Jordan McLaughlin won’t play, and Harrison Ingram is listed as questionable. Those missing pieces change the Spurs’ ceiling and rotation.

With Minnesota at home, Anthony Edwards rolling, and San Antonio shorthanded, the Wolves should have the edge. Expect Minnesota to win and cover a small spread — this looks like a game where Minnesota can pull away late once they lock in on both ends.

Prediction: Minnesota Timberwolves to win and cover the spread (expect a margin of a few points).
