— Anthony Edwards scored 23 points, Karl-Anthony Towns had 22 points, 14 rebounds and five assists, and the Minnesota Timberwolves beat the"Right now every win feels like two, and every loss feels like three. It's just crazy," Minnesota coach Chris Finch said."We desperately needed this game."
Spencer Dinwiddie had 30 points and six assists, Mikal Bridges scored 24 points and Dorian Finney-Smith had 14 points and 10 rebounds for the Nets, who had their three-game win streak snapped. Their lead over Miami for the No. 6 seed in the Eastern Conference was cut to one game after the Heat's 118-105 victory in Detroit.
"We knew that we were going to have a matchup somewhere," Finch said."We put as much shooting out there as we could and felt a little more comfortable guarding everyone on the perimeter, and take nothing away from Rudy; he played a great game." Dinwiddie had two chances to tie the game with 3-pointers in the final 10 seconds, but Edwards blocked his first attempt, and his second hit the back rim.
"We've got a big lineup. I think everyone in the world knows we're playing a two-big lineup," Towns said."We might as well utilize the mismatches we have ... instead of trying to outplay them in a chess game. We can just play checkers."
