Timberwolves eclipse Suns 105-93 to take 2-0 lead in playoff series

In Game 1, the Timberwolves showed they could at least defeat the Suns.

In Game 2, the Timberwolves proved they could actually beat the Suns. That is, not just win a game, but knock them down, wear them out and perhaps make the Suns question if they have a chance in this series.

The Wolves followed their resounding Game 1 victory with another body blow to the Suns with a 105-93 victory Tuesday night at Target Center and took a 2-0 NBA Western Conference quarterfinal playoff series lead behind a strong second half. All this despite Anthony Edwards scoring just 15 points on 3-for-12 and Karl-Anthony Towns scoring only 12.
