Keys to the Game: Cavaliers at Timberwolves

The Wine & Gold look to win their ninth road game of the young season when they travel to Minnesota for a Friday night matchup with Karl-Anthony Towns and the Timberwolves at the Target Center.

The Cavaliers snapped their brief two-game skid on Wednesday night, suffocating a shorthanded Bulls squad at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse, opening up a double-digit lead midway through the second quarter and cruising to the finish line after intermission.

Darius Garland had a nice bounce-back game, leading both teams with 24 points on 9-of-16 shooting, adding six assist and a steal.

Evan Mobley was the lynchpin of a Cavs defense that held the Bulls to 42 percent shooting and was just as good on the offensive end, finishing with 16 points on 8-of-11 shooting to go with nine boards and a career-high five blocks.
