The 2024-25 NBA season kicks off on Tuesday night with a pair of marquee matchups – one for each conference. The Western Conference showdown pits LeBron James and the aging Los Angeles Lakers against Anthony Edwards and the up-and-coming Minnesota Timberwolves.

As much of a defensive force as Rudy Gobert can be, Anthony Davis dominates the Timberwolves, and we expect the same to ring true tonight on the way to a victory for Los Angeles. Before a 12-minute performance in April, the four prior times Davis faced Minnesota he did not score fewer than 31 points and shot an astounding 59% from the field.
