MINNEAPOLIS (FOX 9) – The Minnesota Timberwolves hosted the New York Knicks Thursday night in Karl-Anthony Towns’ return to Target Center, and things got a little crazy in the second quarter.

As the Knicks were dominating, two women stormed the court as the game was going to a timeout. They were both wearing Knicks’ colors, one made it near the TNT courtside broadcast before quickly being escorted away by police. The other never made it past the Knicks’ bench, and was stopped near former Timberwolves’ coach Tom Thibodeau.

Glue Girl Part II?

Why it matters: A few years ago when the Timberwolves were in the NBA’s Play-In Tournament, a woman went onto the floor at the baseline and tried to glue her wrist to the court. She earned the nickname “Glue Girl” and was quickly arrested. She was part of a group protesting a mass killing of chickens at an Iowa farm owned by Glen Taylor. In the game after the “Glue Girl” incident at Target Center, someone sitting directly behind Taylor and his wife, Becky, tried to run on the floor during play and was taken out by Timberwolves’s security.

What we don’t know: What led the two women to storm the court Thursday night.

Were they protesting the Timberwolves’ play?

The Timberwolves got out-scored 41-18 in the second quarter and trailed 73-51 at half. Towns had 22 points, 12 rebounds and four assists at the break.
