Timberwolves overwhelm Pacers with enormous overall effort
Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards put up a shot on the Pacers on Saturday night at Target Center.The celebration at Target Center Saturday night, at least at first, was because Anthony Edwards first signature sneaker debuted in front of a sellout crowd. It took a while for the other shoe to drop.
But it did, big time.
After a rather slow first quarter and a half, the Timberwolves took over their game against Indiana, with Edwards and Karl-Anthony Towns leading the way in a 127-109 victory.
Towns was hot from start to finish, with 14 of his 40 points coming in the first quarter. He finished 15-for-25 overall, had 12 rebounds, four assists, three steals and two blocks.
