The Oklahoma City Thunder (53-19) will square off against the Minnesota Timberwolves (25-45) at the Target Center on Friday night.

The Thunder are currently the highest scoring club in the NBA. However, it's their lights-out defense that's been the catalyst for its latest winning streak.

Oklahoma City will look to continue their impressive play against the Timberwolves, who are in the middle of one of their best offensive stretches of their disappointing season.

The Thunder's defense has allowed the team to outscore its opponents by a 42-24 fast-break point margin in their last two wins.

"When you don't have to take the ball out of the net, you get an opportunity to use your athleticism and get out in transition. Our first three steps can get down to half-court pretty quick and then we put pressure on the defense. It's all about defending. It's all about rebounding and getting out on the break," coach Scott Brooks told ESPN.
