The Minnesota Timberwolves have long been strangers to explosive offensive moments that swing the momentum closing out halves, but came through in a major way tonight.
Following a solid punch from Minnesota that got them out to a 33-24 lead early in the second quarter, the Utah Jazz punched right back with a big ol’ hook in the form of a 24-8 run to retake a 48-41 lead.
Then, Chris Finch’s group effectively decided the feeling out process was over. His group didn’t panic, collected themselves, and landed a few key strikes that just before the break.
