was lacking. Reed Terren Shannon Jr. goes in. Shannon throws it up. Shot. Count it at him. Of these playoffs, they call him a wrecking ball. You look at the size of him and he plays with such force. [Applause] Aaron Wiggins has come on. Williams three-pointer misses. Reed the rebound. They’re two for 12 from three-point range. [Applause] And certainly not surprising Minnesota would come out with a force, but a 23-point lead. Shannon jumper. Got it. How about this off the [Applause] bench? Alexander Walker, Randall, Shannon, Reed, and Connley. Randall the spin. Kicks it out. Another attempt. Shot short. Boy, if Shannon hit that, this makes it go crazy. Williams. The cross opens out there. [Applause] Connect. Shannon trying to guard Jaylen Williams. Now Randall picks him up. Kicks it back out. Wiggins with eight to shoot. Caruso on the drive. Boy, Shannon is just he’s maniacal out there. Shot won’t go. Second shot, a foul. A really solid job against Joic. [Applause] Reed coming up to set the screen. Wallace fights over it and Caruso freaks him and then a reaching call on Caruso. He does not handle being handsy. Connelly knocks down the three. They’re seven of 15 from three-point range. They came in to the conference final 29% from three in the first two games. Wallace nearly stolen by Dvenenzo. Jaylen Williams. Shannon the foul. 9% for his career. Now in his 18th year, Williams steps back. That shot won’t go. Even trying to Shannon getting extended minutes here. Williams had it knocked away. Another turnover. Here’s Shannon goes and Caruso lays it up and in. Pretty good. Shannon drives and draws the foul. Just that rebound. inside won’t go. Ball knocked loose. Williams lets it go out of bounds. By the way, has felt as consistent with their ball pressure, rotation, communication as OKC did to them in the first two games. Jay goes Alexander pulls up, jump shot short. Einstein deflect flowing through his body right now. [Applause] Naz Reed left-handed. Oh, sweet hook shot with the off hand from Nas Reed. There’s Big Jelly. They call him that for a reason. He’s so dynamic and skilled. Giving you a little glimpse of it. Wiggins open three. Rattles that one in. McDaniels quickly down the other end. Good transition defense from OKC, but Kylie winds up. He knocks down a three. It’s a title wave here during the course of the regular season. I did not have Terrence Shannon on my bingo card. Naz Reed with a block from Ohio. Went to high school in Chicago in Florida. He loved Russell Westbrook. He’s got a little Russell Westbrook in his game. He had a pretty awesome jersey retirement too in Illinois. Connie to Reed. Now Randall. Randall goes inside, kicks it out. McDaniels with five to shoot. Tough fall away shot. Great defense there from [Applause] Hungrenis Alexander tries a three-pointer. He’s now one for six from the field. Mike Connley, Reed and Edwards. Edwards had that big first quarter. His teammates doing a lot here on the second. Randall triple team. Gets the shot off but can’t get it. McDaniels the rebound. Back up top. Reed. Reed to the rim. Bank shots good. Homegrren slightly limping as he comes up the floor. One of many Timberwolves that have turned it around here in game three. Kilus Alexander came down and a travel nine. His sweet spot used that length to deter him. Just past the midway point here in the second. Dort fouled his second. He’s trying to pass the ball. Connelly finds some room, can’t hit the three. Homegrren tracks down the rebound. OKC just trying right now with his 28-point deficit to cut into it before halftime. SGA steps back and knocks down the three. Just his second field goal. They’ve been in this environment before in their Memphis series. They got absolutely hammered and then it was a big time comeback. That was game three. They were down by 29 late in the second. Obviously a different quality of team, but it was also on the road. Naz Reed three-pointer puts it in. Reed is four for four from the field. He’s at both his threes. He’s in double figures. SGA gets inside and draws a foul. Randle finds some room. McDaniels along the baseline. Go kicks it back out. Alexander Walker, the runner, the bench with 27 points. Gildas Alexander comes right back. He’s starting to get a little bit of a rhythm after a very slow start. He’s actually their leading scoreer. They have 32 points with 420 to play in the half. Archstein helping out defensively. Edwards pulls up from the elbow. Shot no good. Jaylen Williams the rebound. [Applause] Arch time. Mitchell corner three. That won’t go. Edwards had all 16 of his points in that first quarter. Alexander Walker the drive. Counted at one. Edwards on the drive. Wallace right with him. Pulls up baseline. It’s good. His first bucket since the first quarter by 32 points. Just Alexander can’t get it to fall. Fight for the rebound. Go. Minnesota shooting 54% from the field. Only three turnovers. Randall the spin. Randall the [Applause] finish. Jaylen Williams. Isaiah Joe looking back and Minnesota defense just sensational. Isaiah Joe long three-pointer rebound. Kase Wallace. Williams fakes. Williams drives. Shot. El good but a foul. He’s going to head back to the free you off the floor defensively. No, I started uh game three and game four. That’s what that was the big adjustment. Randall goes at Isaiah Jones. Leans in just overpowers and scores. A 35point lead. Jaylen Williams. Minute and a half to go here in the second. Williams lines up his three-pointer. Gets that to go. Eight points for Jaylen Williams. [Applause] Edwards gets into the paint, pulls back, and jumper’s good. 20 first half points for Anthony Edwards. Eight of 11 from the [Applause] field. Elvis Alexander got on track a little bit here in the second. Nearly threw it away. Good catch from Isaiah Joe finds Homegrren and Homegrren blocked but fouled. Man, Minnesota just a total domination here in the first two quarters. And the foul’s going to be on Jaylen Williams. Playoff game in a half Minnesota has ever scored as Edwards gives it right back. It’s only their fourth turnover. [Applause] About a 5 and 1/2 second difference shot clock and game clock. Jaylen Williams connects on a three. Shot clock turned off so Minnesota will hold it for the final shot. No fouls to give here. Randle lobs it almost lost. Alexander Walker now drives. Gets into the lane. Running shot is no good. Fight for the rebound. Still loose. skilled as Alexander going to toss it from three quarters and that will end the first
