The Minnesota Timberwolves closed out their pre-All-Star break schedule with a matchup against the team with the NBA’s best record, the Oklahoma City Thunder.
The Wolves were incredibly shorthanded as Mike Conley and Rudy Gobert did not play in the game, adding to the laundry list of missing Wolves that includes Julius Randle and Donte DiVincenzo who have been out the past couple of weeks.
The energy inside Target Center started out low with each team trading baskets as the Wolves tried to hang in the game without four of their usual rotation players.
