Best moments from Wolves’ series-evening win over Warriors

The Minnesota Timberwolves took care of business Thursday, defeating the Golden State Warriors 117-93 in Game 2 to even the Western Conference semifinals in Minneapolis.

Minnesota opened with a 13-0 run and never looked back en route to a wire-to-wire victory. Game 3 is Saturday (8:30 p.m. ET on ABC) in San Francisco.

Anthony Edwards exited the game with a left ankle sprain in the first half but returned after the break. He had 20 points and nine rebounds, while Julius Randle contributed a team-high 24 points and 11 assists. Randle is the first Minnesota player with 20 points and 10 assists in a playoff game since Kevin Garnett in 2004.

Edwards and Randle are the third Timberwolves duo to each have 20 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists in the same game in franchise postseason history, according to ESPN Research.

Without Stephen Curry, who is out for at least a week due to a Grade 1 left hamstring strain, Golden State went deep into its bench — 14 players recorded minutes. The Warriors were led by 18 points off the bench from Jonathan Kuminga, while Jimmy Butler III added 17 points and 7 rebounds.
