Opening the season with a road victory over a playoff team from last season was a tremendous way for the Minnesota Timberwolves to begin the Gersson Rosas and Ryan Saunders era. This win will instill confidence in the new system that Rosas and Saunders are trying to employ.
The highlights from this game included Karl-Anthony Towns being amazing and some key contributions from the bench.
We expect to see a great game from Towns night in and night out, but his outside shooting really made this performance stand out.
His extremely active defense was also encouraging as he racked up three steals and three blocks.
