The Golden State Warriors faced the Minnesota Timberwolves in a crucial playoff match but fell short, losing 102-97. Missing star Steph Curry due to a hamstring injury, the Warriors relied on Jonathan Kuminga, who scored 30 points, and Jimmy Butler's 33 points for the Timberwolves. Anthony Edwards secured a strong performance, scoring 28 points in the second half, contributing to the Warriors' collapse in the fourth quarter. Draymond Green's foul-out further exacerbated the situation for Golden State, which now finds itself down 2-1 in the series.
But it was not enough. Wolves superstar Anthony Edwards scored 28 of his 36 points in the second half and Julius Randle had a 24-point triple double, handing the Warriors a gut-wrenching 102-97 loss.
The Warriors led going into the fourth quarter, but saw their slim lead evaporate with a 17-7 Wolves run to begin the period. With no Curry and Green down the stretch, Butler and Kuminga's great nights went to waste.
