Following last night’s ... eventful 104-101 win over the Golden State Warriors to beat them in back-to-back games the Minnesota Timberwolves traveled to the desert to take on the Phoenix Suns, who were supposed to be at full strength for the first time this season with all of Kevin Durant, Devin Booker and Bradley Beal said to be active.
This did not turn out to be the case, as Beal ended up being a late scratch after going through his pregame warmup. Despite that, it still was a tough slate considering the energy expended last night and coming into town against a fresh Phoenix team, playing after three days of rest.
