All season, the Timberwolves have been a team that’s responded well to adversity.
Now it’s time to see if that experience can help them as they face their toughest test yet.
Down 2-0 in the NBA Western Conference finals against the top-seeded Oklahoma City Thunder and their MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, time is running out on Anthony Edwards, Julius Randle, and the Wolves as the series shifts back to the Target Center.
Follow below for live updates.
In Game 2, the Wolves continued to struggle against the Thunder’s relentless pressure, turning the ball over 14 times en route to a 118-103 loss. They again struggled from three-point territory, shooting 11-39 (28.2%) despite getting numerous open looks.
The good news for Minnesota is that Edwards looked like the All-NBA player he is, finishing with 32 points, nine rebounds, and six assists. But he struggled from beyond the arc, shooting 1-9 from three.
