All-Star forward Karl-Anthony Towns found foul trouble Monday night at Target Center, so fellow big man Rudy Gobert simply helped him out with a 25-point, 16-rebound, three-blocked shots performance that was everything the Timberwolves needed for a 119-114 victory over Portland.
Included was Gobert's 9-for-10 shooting from the field – many of them dunks of the two-handed variety – and a perfect 7-for-7 from the free-throw line, too, before he fouled out in the game's final seconds.
It didn't hurt, either, that the Wolves won that free-throw battle, outdoing Portland with a 33-10 disparity in foul shots made.
