Lhe Timberwolves shielded their seventh position by crushing the Thunder with six players over ten points, led by Karl Anthony Towns’ 20 and Naz Reid who sealed a perfect match, with eight of eight shooting, two of two in triples and two of two in free.
A victory in which the Wolves had to overcome the good game of Gilgeoux-Alexander and in which they also had to fight against the elements such as the mop boys at the Chesapeake Arena in Oklahoma City.
Two Thunder employees who became the protagonists of the duel when in the third quarter they stopped the Wolves’ counterattack in its tracks with one of the best defenses of the season. An action that the referees considered good and that ended with the failure of the Minnesota attack.
