Schedule Alert and red alerts
Red-alert games marked in bold
Jan. 25: Suns | Opponent: Nuggets | MahScore: 9.5
Jan. 25: Timberwolves | Opponent: Jazz | MahScore: 8
Playoff implications: This is a brutal spot for the Timberwolves, as it will mark their fourth game in six days, their third game in four days and the second of a back-to-back set with overnight eastward travel across a time zone. After facing the Lakers in Los Angeles the night before in a nationally televised game, the Timberwolves will head out -- losing an hour along the way -- for Salt Lake City to face a Jazz team that enters this game with a one-day rest advantage. Both these squads will need every win they can get to stay alive in the Western Conference playoff race, but the Timberwolves should be fighting some serious fatigue in this one.
