PHOENIX – There were several indicators early in the Timberwolves 133-115 loss to the Phoenix Suns that Wednesday wasn't going to be the Wolves' night.
Former Wolves guard Josh Okogie, a 17% three-point shooter entering the night, burned the Wolves for 3-for-3 from deep in the first half. Anthony Edwards, who has had a love-hate relationship (mostly hate) playing on back-to-backs in his young career, started the game 1-for-5 while Phoenix forward Drew Eubanks posterized Karl-Anthony Towns on a dunk in the second quarter.
A night after the Wolves had an emotional win at Golden State, the team flew into Phoenix on a tough turnaround and had almost nothing break its way in its effort to sustain a now-broken seven-game win streak.
