On Wednesday night, in front of a packed Target Center, the Minnesota Timberwolves took on the Miami Heat as they looked to improve to .500 on the season and extend their winning streak to five games.

And they did just that.

Game Story

After coming out of the gates aggressively, Karl-Anthony Towns picked up his 3rd foul at the 7:28 mark in the first quarter. This sparked Chris Finch to pull Towns from the game. Towns ultimately finished the half on the bench with the Wolves heading to the locker room down by 8, 62-54.
