The Golden State Warriors have suffered a familiar failed comeback tale against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Friday night, having already fallen short in epic comebacks efforts against the Oklahoma City Thunder and Philadelphia 76ers in the last 10 days.
The Warriors trailed by 12 in the fourth-quarter after giving up a 17-0 run, only to climb back and take a three-point lead with less than two minutes remaining. But just like those Thunder and 76er matchups, Golden State were unable to execute down the stretch as the Timberwolves stole a 127-120 victory at Chase Center.
Stephen Curry's explosive return went unrewarded against the Timberwolves
This failed comeback will sting the Warriors a little more given this time they had the services of 2x MVP Stephen Curry, not to mention the Timberwolves were without their own superstar in Anthony Edwards who watched on from the sidelines.
