In a dramatic turnaround, the Minnesota Timberwolves clawed their way to a 105-100 victory against the Dallas Mavericks, staving off elimination and forcing a Game 5 in the Western Conference finals.
Led by a resurgent Karl-Anthony Towns, who exploded for 20 of his 25 points in the second half, the Timberwolves showcased resilience and determination on Tuesday night.
With Anthony Edwards contributing 29 points, 10 rebounds, and nine assists, the Timberwolves managed to keep their playoff hopes alive in a thrilling contest.
Despite the Mavericks’ dynamic duo of Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving combining for 44 points, the Timberwolves’ defensive efforts held firm, limiting their shooting efficiency.
Towns, rejuvenated after a challenging series, displayed his versatility by sinking crucial 3-pointers and making impactful plays down the stretch.
With the series now at 3-1 in favor of Dallas, the Timberwolves are gearing up for a pivotal Game 5 on Thursday night in Minnesota.
