The Minnesota Timberwolves were coming into tonight’s game after losing in Cleveland, but wanted to remain undefeated at home in 2026. The Timberwolves had the San Antonio Spurs in town with their bright future star Victor Wembanyama, who were looking to get a W tonight.

The game started out extremely rough for the Minnesota Timberwolves as the Spurs went on a 16-0 run as Victor Wembanyama was able to impact the game in his limited minutes during that stretch. The San Antonio Spurs are no slouch as they are one of the best teams in the Western Conference in the depth on their team was on full display tonight against the Minnesota Timberwolves as they had six players and double figures. Victor Wembanyama was incredible tonight against the Minnesota Timberwolves with his limited Minutes, but still managed to finish with 29 points, 7 rebounds, and 1 assist.

 

Some of the shots that Victor was making over Rudy Gobert were just unfair and it’s crazy that the NBA has a talent like this in the league that will carry them for a long time coming. The impact that Victor has on both ends of the floor was on full display tonight until that fourth quarter when the Timberwolves decided to put Julius Randall on him and give him that physicality. The job that Julius Randall did on Victor Wembanyama was impressive in the fourth quarter as he made everything tough on him and Julius was able to get his offense going as well on the second chance points down the stretch.

The Tim showed that they have a lot of heart tonight and they didn’t back down when the Spurs had a big lead. Anthony Edwards didn’t have his best first 3 quarters of the game, but he showed up in the fourth quarter when it mattered for his team. Anthony Edwards has been the best player in clutch time points in the NBA this season And tonight down the stretch, he put on the show for the Minnesota Timberwolves fans in Target Center.

 

Anthony Edwards finished with 23 points but none more impressive than the bank shot he made on Victor Wembanyama to seal the game for the Timberwolves. It doesn’t matter where he’s playing or what he’s playing Anthony Edwards seems to be the real deal and he turns on another gear when the moment is as bright as it can be like tonight against the Spurs.

The Timberwolves had six players in double figures tonight and Jaden McDaniels was the player of the game in Anthony Edwards eyes for the way he played on both ends. Donte DiVincenzo made some clutch shots in this game and seemed to be in a smooth rhythm from wherever he shot at tonight. Rudy Gobert didn’t do too much tonight, but defensively he made an impact when needed the most, but might have a suspension looming after his fragrant foul on Victor Wembanyama for not closing out the shooter space.

Up next to Minnesota Timberwolves will be going against Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks as they try to stack up some more wins to start a new winning streak.

The Minnesota Timberwolves came in riding a nice win streak and they were looking to improve on that tonight against the Suns.

Phoenix was playing without Jalen Green and Superstar Devin Booker tonight. In their absence tonight it was a huge showing from Mark Williams, Dillion Brooks, and Collin Gillespie. The Suns were in control of the game from the very start as the Timberwolves found themselves playing catch up. Mark Williams set the tone for the Suns in the paint against Rudy Gobert as both were going back in forth. Mark Williams had legit everything working tonight from the alley oop to even a 3 pointer that he drained.

William’s impacted the game in a way the Suns desperately needed and it worked out. Williams and Gobert were dominant tonight but both got hit with Flagrant fouls except Rudy Gobert’s was a Flagrant 2 that got him ejected. Rudy left the game with 15 points, 8 rebounds, and 1 assist. Mark Williams continued to be a force as he finished with 22 points, 7 rebounds, and 3 assists.

Dillion Brooks was hitting some timely shots and he was very aggressive playing that number 1 option role. Brooks finished with 18 points but was hitting some contested jumpers with Timberwolves players in his face. Brooks is one of those players you love when he’s on your team because he will be a pest and get under the opponents skin. Also Gillespie played lights out in the 2nd half giving the Suns some cushion on some impressive made shots. He finished with 19 points, 6 rebounds, and 4 assists on the night. Gillespie is one of those scrappy players that you want on your team in crucial moments because he continues to deliver.

The Timberwolves on the other hand had an amazing effort tonight from Anthony Edwards as he was able to drop 40 on the Suns. They were doubling Edwards and he was able to keep making the right plays. Edwards had to brunt a lot of the shots when Rudy went out and he was able to get to the basket with ease. Anthony Edwards has that takeover ability and he tried to tonight but there just wasn’t enough time. Julius Randle chipped in 21 points, 3 rebounds, and 8 assists for the Wolves. When both of them have it going on it usually means great things for the Timberwolves.

Bones Hyland was the bright spot off the bench tonight as Naz Reid wasn’t able to connect early in the game. If they get Naz and Bones both going this game would have been a Timberwolves win. Just lets you know that the bench is very important and you have to be able to adjust to different situations just like Naz did with Rudy ejected.

The Timberwolves will get a little break before they play their next game and will be looking to bounce back in a major way.

The Timberwolves Handed The LA Clippers Their 18th Loss Of The Season (109-106)

The Timberwolves came into this game on a 4 game winning streak. The Clippers were coming into town fresh off of sending CP3 home. When everyone thought the Clippers would look out of whack they came out strong in Minnesota.

The Clippers were able to strike first with some vintage play from Kawhi Leonard and James Harden. Both the future hall of famers combined for 54 points and were able to put the Clippers on their back. James Harden was able to get to his spots against the Timberwolves defense early in the game and throughout the game. Kawhi Leonard looked really good for the Clippers as well with his mid range game.

Another bright spot for the Clippers was the impact that Zubac had against the Timberwolves in the paint finishing with 15 points and 13 rebounds. The Clippers had a game plan of trying to take Anthony Edwards out of the game which happened as he finished with 15 points but the other players stepped up big time.

The Timberwolves of 2025 have learned to play through multiple players and one of those players is Jaden McDaniels. Jaden was defending Harden and Leonard but still managed to come out in the 2nd half aggressive on both ends. Speaking of both ends it was his offense that took over as he was able to get the jumper going and attacked the rim with ease.

Jaden put the Timberwolves offense on his back and it was a sight to see because the Clippers had no answers for him. When Jaden gets in his scoring bag like he did in the 2nd half it’s special to watch. On the night Jaden finished with 27 points and the Wolves needed every single point. It was impressive to see the way Jaden was able to play within the game and didn’t let anything feel forced.

The Timberwolves made a lot of hustle plays and the two players down the stretch that made crucial plays for Minnesota was Naz Reid/Mike Conley. Both of them made some huge plays whether it was chasing a ball down, hitting big shots in big moments, or just getting the rebounds. It seems like Naz and Mike were around for big moments and it counted when it mattered. Naz Reid had 19 points off the bench and made an impact instantly when he came in the game against the Clippers.

The Timberwolves will be playing the Phoenix Suns on Monday as they look to keep their winning streak alive.

The Timberwolves have been on a roll as of late and that has been because of the amazing play from Naz Reid. The Wolves took on the Wizards who only have 1 win on the season. It’s the Timberwolves last home game before they hit the road for a stretch of games.

The first quarter in this one belonged to Anthony Edwards as he was able to score 12 points. It didn’t matter who they put on Anthony Edwards tonight he came out aggressive and on a mission to put the Wizards away early. The Wizards put Middleton and George on him tonight and it was a clear mismatch. Anthony Edwards finished with 18 points, 2 rebounds, and 2 assists on the night. The Timberwolves were up by 27 points at one point in the game so they didn’t need Edwards for the whole night.

Once Anthony Edwards hit the bench to get some rest it quickly turned into the Naz Reid show in Target Center. The heater that Naz Reid has been on this week needs to be studied all over. It has been amazing to watch Naz play elite basketball on both sides of the ball. He’s been able to hit his 3 point shot but he’s been making opponents like the Wizards tonight pay for not doubling. Naz Reid had a 20+ point 1st half and was able to put the team on his back as he made it tough for the Wizards to keep up with the scoring. Naz Reid shot (11-21) from the field and it was special to watch for any Wolves fan tonight.

The Wizards made a run in the 3rd quarter trying to make it close coming out of halftime but Minnesota put a stop to that quick. Khris Middleton had 23 points on the night for the Wizards. Washington had 7 scorers in double digits tonight but it wasn’t enough as the Timberwolves defense forced 17 turnovers. The Timberwolves lived at the line tonight as they went (25-35)from the free throw line. Minnesota hasn’t settled for jumpers on this stretch as they have been able to attack the rim with aggression.

The Timberwolves will begin their road trip as they will be leaving Minnesota (10-5) on the season.
