SACRAMENTO – One of the defining wins of the Timberwolves season came earlier in March when they came into Sacramento on the tail end of a back-to-back and pulled out a victory over the fast-paced Kings.
The Wolves returned to Sacramento in similar circumstances after beating Golden State on Sunday during their final West Coast trip of the season.
The Wolves repeated their recent history with another important victory, this time 119-115 at Golden1 Center with Karl-Anthony Towns out because of a rest day as he comes back from his injured right calf.
The Wolves controlled a close game in the fourth quarter with some timely stops and big buckets up and down the roster, which typified their effort for the night.
