NEW YORK – Following Sunday's disastrous loss to tanking Portland, the Timberwolves tried to do what they've done several times this season — rebound quickly from a debilitating loss.
The Wolves did it once again with a 107-102 win over the Nets in Brooklyn.
Karl-Anthony Towns hit a pair of free throws to break a 100-100 tie with one minute left, and guard Mike Conley forced a turnover by swiping the ball out of bounds of Dorian Finney-Smith. The game turned into a battle of free throws from there, with Conley offering Brooklyn a sliver of life by hitting just one of two for a 105-102 lead with 12.
