With their season on the line, the Timberwolves showed up and won by a score of 115-70.

The Timberwolves were led by All-Star guard Anthony Edwards, who finished with 27 points, four rebounds, four assists and three steals while shooting 8/17 from the field and 4/9 from the three-point range in 34 minutes of playing time.
They also shot 46.5% from the field and 37.5% from the three-point range (as a team).
