OKLAHOMA CITY – There were so many ways Friday night’s 139-127 loss to the Thunder went wrong for the Timberwolves, so let’s dive right in and take a look at the makings of the Wolves’ most devastating loss of the season.
First, Towns’ leads them back
Karl-Anthony Towns was quiet for most of the second half. He entered the night with a sore right knee, but he led the Wolves, who were without the injured Andrew Wiggins (sprained left thumb) into position to win the game. Towns (30 points) had just one field goal attempt in the second half until the 3:48 mark of the fourth quarter.
