In their most recent game, which took place on February 14, 2025, the Timberwolves defeated Oklahoma City 116-101, demonstrating their ability to control the offense. The Thunder's tremendous scoring ability is demonstrated by the fact that they prevailed in three of their last five meetings, including a resounding 129-106 victory on December 27, 2023.
