The Wolves outscored the Kings 34-17 in the third quarter, leading to a 118-100 win in Sacramento on Monday night.
It marked the team’s second-straight win without All-Star Jimmy Butler, who is out indefinitely after surgery on his right knee. These wins have come against two of the worst teams in the NBA record wise, but with the Western Conference so tight, you’ll take wins where you can get them.
Karl-Anthony Towns led the Wolves with 26 points and 17 rebounds. Andrew Wiggins added 22 points. Jeff Teague finished with 20 points, seven assists and three steals.
