KEY GAME INFORMATION
GOLDEN STATE: GUARDS: STEPHEN CURRY is this offense's engine and a stat-stuffing machine, as long as he's healthy. His ankle should be healed, but his small frame hasn't proven to be up to the rigors of the NBA . . . KLAY THOMPSON is a pure shooter who played himself into a starting job last year. He's a bit one-dimensional, but this spread, up-tempo offense is right up his alley . . . JARRETT JACK will back up both guard spots and provide some insurance for the fragile Curry . . . BRANDON RUSH is going to push for a starting job, but he's never proven to be more than a second-unit talent . . . As a rookie, CHARLES JENKINS proved worthy of a roster spot during his late-season audition. But he'll be looking at a lot of DNP-CDs as long as Curry and Jack are healthy. FORWARDS: DAVID LEE's touches will drop alongside Andrew Bogut. The Warriors seem prepared to give him major minutes despite his defensive shortcomings . . . HARRISON BARNES should push for a starting job early. He's not a great iso player, but the Warriors' offense should set him up with catch-and-score opportunities . . . CARL LANDRY is active around the basket and should do some damage over 20 MPG . . . RICHARD JEFFERSON is going to be in a mentor role until his contract expires in two years . . . JEREMY TYLER is young and a borderline usable big off the bench . . . Second-rounder DRAYMOND GREEN isn't an athlete but does a bit of everything. He figures to have a limited role as a rookie. CENTERS: His fractured ankle is not quite 100 percent, but ANDREW BOGUT hopes to be healed enough when the season starts to be the centerpiece of the frontcourt. He can rebound and defend, and he'll get his share of easy scoring opportunities with so many shooters spreading the floor . . . The Warriors seem content to let ANDRIS BIEDRINS rot on the bench . . . Rookie FESTUS EZELI is too raw offensively to see significant minutes.
MINNESOTA: GUARDS: RICKY RUBIO could be back by late December, but even he's not confident his knee will be 100 percent. His minutes might have to be scaled back . . . LUKE RIDNOUR will handle the offense with Rubio hampered. The vet is a steady hand in coach Rick Adelman's Euro-style offense . . . They're counting on BRANDON ROY to reclaim his old form after a radical knee procedure. He may never be 100 percent, but he should at least give them sixth-man minutes . . . CHASE BUDINGER is a three-point marksman who moves well off the ball, a perfect fit in Adelman's system . . . J.J. BAREA will take some of the point guard burden as well. He's a top sixth man . . . ALEXEY SHVED can help as a combo guard, though he might have trouble breaking into this rotation . . . MALCOLM LEE is a defensive stopper who won't be asked to shoot very often. FORWARDS: Despite being limited athletically, KEVIN LOVE is an elite rebounder and shooter for a big. He'll continue to be the focal point of this offense once he returns from a broken hand in early December . . . ANDREI KIRILENKO returns to the States after a dominating Euroleague stint. He's a big upgrade at the three and should be comfortable in Adelman's system . . . DERRICK WILLIAMS will continue his attempted transition to the three. As last year proved, he's a long, long ways away. He might have to play himself into a rotation spot . . . DANTE CUNNINGHAM is a nice, efficient big to bring off the bench . . . Since they need shooting on the wings, rookie ROBBIE HUMMEL has a chance to crack the rotation. CENTERS: NIKOLA PEKOVIC is a beast, the best offensive rebounder in the NBA. His total rebounding numbers get hurt playing alongside Kevin Love, but Pekovic will continue to bully his way to put-backs . . . GREG STIEMSMA is going to come in and do some pushing and shoving (and occasional shot-blocking) for 12-to-15 MPG.

*Warriors-Timberwolves Preview* ===============================

By JEFF MEZYDLO STATS Senior Writer

Golden State (32-23) at Minnesota (20-32), 3:30 p.m. EDT

With back-to-back home victories, the Golden State Warriors have rebounded from their longest slide of the season.

A visit to Minnesota might help them end their struggles on the road.

The Warriors look to avoid a sixth straight road defeat Sunday with a fifth consecutive win over the Timberwolves.

Debuting its new short-sleeve yellow jerseys, Golden State (32-23) overcame a 13-point fourth-quarter deficit to beat NBA-leading San Antonio 107-101 in overtime Friday for its second straight victory following a six-game skid.

"We're not going anywhere," coach Mark Jackson said. "We will not go anywhere. So get used to seeing these beautiful yellow jerseys."

The Warriors will wear the unique threads two more times, but not Sunday when they open a five-game trip trying to avoid losing at least six straight road games in a fifth consecutive season. Golden State's last five road opponents have averaged 117.8 points and shot 49.4 percent.

However, the Warriors have held Minnesota (20-32) to 91.3 points per game on 40.1 percent shooting while winning four straight in the series, including the last three at the Target Center. Golden State has won nine of 11 at Minnesota.

The Warriors hope their strong defensive effort against the Spurs carries over Sunday. San Antonio matched its third-worst shooting performance of the season at 38.9 percent and went 4 of 22 (18.2 percent) from 3-point range.

"By far our best defensive effort in a really, really long time," guard Jarrett Jack said. "Maybe a team like the Spurs makes you perk your ears and forces yourself to dig in."

Jack finished with 30 points and 10 assists while David Lee scored 25 with a season-high 22 rebounds to help Golden State snap a 16-game skid against San Antonio.

Jack became the first NBA reserve to finish with that combination of points and assists since Magic Johnson on Feb. 16, 1996. A strong candidate for the NBA's Sixth Man of the Year award, Jack has averaged 22.4 points on 52.0 percent shooting along with 6.6 assists in his last five contests, which were interrupted by a three-game absence due to a sore shoulder.

He scored 13 in a 106-98 win at Minnesota on Nov. 16, but was held to one while shooting 0 of 7 from the field in a 96-85 home victory over the Timberwolves eight days later.

Minnesota again failed to win two in a row for the first time in more than two months when it yielded its most points of the season in Friday's 127-111 loss at Oklahoma City. Rookie Alexey Shved scored 17 to lead seven players in double figures for the Timberwolves, who shot 48.2 percent but allowed the Thunder to make 57.8 percent of their attempts.

"We moved the ball better, we attacked better," guard J.J. Barea said. "I think we were a little more aggressive. We just couldn't stop them.

"If we offense like that every night, we're going to have better chances to win games. So hopefully we carry this on to the next game."

Shved had a season-high 22 points with seven assists in the November home meeting with Golden State.

Andrew Bogut wasn't around then, one of 38 consecutive games he missed with a sore ankle. His latest problem is a protruding disk that's causing back issues, and Bogut won't travel on the beginning of this trip after sitting out Friday's victory.

The Warriors are hopeful he can return later in the trip, but there is no timetable for his return.
