The celebration at Target Center Saturday night, at least at first, was because Anthony Edwards first signature sneaker debuted in front of a sellout crowd. It took a while for the other shoe to drop.
But it did, big time.
After a rather slow first quarter and a half, the Timberwolves took over their game against Indiana, with Edwards and Karl-Anthony Towns leading the way in a 127-109 victory.
Towns was hot from start to finish, with 14 of his 40 points coming in the first quarter. He finished 15-for-25 overall, had 12 rebounds, four assists, three steals and two blocks.
