Recent Game Highlights
The Timberwolves just wrapped up a tight win against the Denver Nuggets, pulling off a 112‑108 comeback in the fourth quarter. Anthony Edwards sparked the rally with a 30‑point outburst, hitting three threes in the last eight minutes. Rudy Gobert anchored the paint, grabbing 12 rebounds and altering eight shots. The team’s defense tightened after a sluggish first half, forcing nine turnovers that turned into fast‑break points.
In the same stretch, Minnesota struggled against the Boston Celtics, falling 101‑95. The loss highlighted a need for better perimeter shooting; the Timberwolves shot just 33% from three. However, Naz Reid’s double‑double (14 points, 10 rebounds) showed that the frontcourt can still produce when the ball moves. Coach Wes Unseld Jr. emphasized improving ball movement in the post‑game interview, promising a sharper offensive set for the next matchup.
Player Spotlights & Stats
Anthony Edwards continues to be the franchise’s centerpiece. At 22, he’s averaging 24.2 points, 5.1 rebounds, and 4.3 assists per game. His ability to create his own shot makes him a constant threat, especially in clutch moments. Keep an eye on his three‑point percentage – it’s hovering around 38% and could push the team into a higher scoring tier.
Rudy Gobert remains the defensive anchor. With a season‑average of 2.3 blocks and a defensive rating among the league’s best, his presence deters opponents from attacking the rim. When Gobert is healthy, the Timberwolves rank in the top ten for opponent field‑goal percentage.
Young guard Jaden McDaniels is emerging as a versatile scorer. He posted a career‑high 22 points against the Knicks, shooting 7‑of‑12 from the field. His improvement on the perimeter adds depth to the lineup, allowing the team to spread the floor.
Looking ahead, the Timberwolves face the Chicago Bulls on Friday. The game will test how well Minnesota can defend the Bulls’ fast‑break offense while maintaining shooting efficiency. Expect a tight battle; the Timberwolves’ recent home record suggests they could capitalize on crowd energy.
