A night after securing their second (and most impressive) victory of the season, the Minnesota Timberwolves traveled south to Los Angeles for what was shaping up to be a pseudo double-header between the Lakers (Sunday night) and then the Clippers (Tuesday night).
The endorphin rush that came from Saturday’s stunning victory against the Utah Jazz leaked into Sunday morning and Sunday afternoon, especially after it was initially reported that Karl-Anthony Towns would surprisingly have a chance to play in the matchup against LAL, despite falling extremely hard on his left wrist the night before.
