Just like life, comedy and the NBA, timing is everything and young Timberwolves star Andrew Wiggins proved that once again in Friday’s tense 103-102 victory over the Golden State Warriors at Target Center.
Eighteen seconds after he missed consecutive free throws that would have given his team a three-point lead, Wiggins made two in a row when it mattered most.
Those two with 12.8 seconds left provided the game’s tying and winning points.
Warriors superstar Stephen Curry’s left-wing shot that would have put his team back ahead spun around the rim and came out and the two teams fought for the ball as the final seconds ticked away.
