With the Wolves leading 14-10 in the first quarter, Memphis forward Jaren Jackson Jr. grabbed a defensive rebound and tried to pass to guard Ja Morant.
Wolves forward Jarred Vanderbilt came from behind Jackson and knocked the ball away, fought off Jackson for the loose ball and then dished to an open Anthony Edwards, who knocked down the first of five first-quarter three-pointers to ignite the Wolves' runaway victory.
