The Oklahoma City Thunder (4-1) will host the Minnesota Timberwolves (1-3) on Saturday. Here’s how to watch this NBA Northwest Division rivalry online.

The NBA has eight games on the slate on Saturday, November 5th. One of those games will be between Northwest Division rivals in the Minnesota Timberwolves (1-3) and the Oklahoma City Thunder (4-1).

Tipoff from Chesapeake Energy Arena will be at 6:00 PM ET. FOX Sports North will have the game in Greater Minneapolis. FOX Sports Oklahoma will have the game in Greater Oklahoma City. Since this game will not be nationally televised, the available live stream can be found on NBA League Pass, which requires a subscription.

Minnesota has stumbled to 1-3 out of the gate. The Timberwolves’ lone win this season came to the Memphis Grizzlies at home on November 1st. Minnesota has lost games to Memphis, the Sacramento Kings, and the Denver Nuggets.

This team is young and playing for a new head coach in Tom Thibodeau. Growing pains are expected in the Twin Cities in the early part of this season, especially on the defensive end of the floor.

Oklahoma City lost its first game of the season to the Golden State Warriors in a nationally televised game on Thursday night, 122-96. Former Thunder small forward Kevin Durant got the best of his former team. However, losing on the road in Oracle Arena is anything but shameful in recent years. Golden State is just that good of a basketball team.

Date: Saturday, November 5
Time: 6:00 p.m. ET

According to OddsShark.com, the Thunder will be laying 6.5 points at home to the visiting Timberwolves. The associated money lines are Oklahoma City -227 and Minnesota +175. This game’s over/under comes in at a combined 207.5 points.

With both teams getting a day’s worth of rest before this game, expect Oklahoma City to take care of business in this one. Getting embarrassed on national television on Thursday night will amplify Russell Westbrook’s already undeniable tenacity. This could be a blowout in favor of Oklahoma City.
