That time he missed the mid-range shot. SGA drives on Connley. Pulls up. Four free throws coming up and another and one at the free throw line as SCA gets downhill as SGA working through those screens from Caruso now decides to pull it back out. McDaniels defending SCA drives and SJ got the best of them on a good defensive player once again getting to the rim. Misses again from downtown and pops out. Now the Thunder have numbers. Caruso gives it up. Dor’s going to finish it off as he flushes it down. Even going back to that run last year to the Western Conference Finals, Kenri kept the pivot foot down. Then the left hand, he just slipped right. He caught him going up and just pent it down. And Jub nice his way through that Minnesota defense for the deuce. had one of the top ranked defense about it who’s on the floor. They’re willing to play defense. Oh, Jub just picked the pocket of Dillingham. He’ll take it himself and take flight on the other end. and he decides to pull it out. Did not want to go oneon- two. Crosscourt pass to Wiggins off the catch and he knew it was good. He started to head down the floor as Wiggins nothing but net back iron off the heel comes right over to JDub navigates outside.

Wide open three was JDub. Homegrown everybody for the subtle tap. going the other way. Zigzagging his way up the floor up to Hartstein. The lob up top and Hogren powers it down. That’s going to be a technical foul. This is good defense here once again got them in a short clock and look what you get. You get a turnover out of along with the Cleveland Cavaliers on the eastern side of the NBA. Caruso got sent out of the play. Dort another cut and Lou Dort full flight elevation punch for the jam. Russo catch fire three. No good. Offensive rebound on the weak side. It’s SGA straight away. That one is going to rattle home. A much needed three. Got to keep taking that shot.

Another good def good good defensive play. There it is right there as I’m speaking. Both teams giving up possessions. Wiggins. He was decided on that one to take it no matter what.

Shot clock at three. Caruso hoist and hits from downtown. Alex Guso big fourth quarter three. SGA back out on the floor. Minnesota keeps running this play with Reed in the corner waiting for that cutter that time. Homer just swallowing a month. They’re going to call a foul. Big shot in a big moment.

See if Jub can get up there. Alexander Walker blocked on the back side by SGA. His cousin McDaniels. He had it stripped by Caruso. Now SGA the other side. He’ll pull and in from downtown. 13th turnover. Chris Vinch one of the double team. It swings over to Jaylen Williams and the threes continue to fly. He just has not had a whole lot of good looks, but he’s very creative. You can’t play too much up on him because he can shoot the three. SGA in closing time comes up again. About a buck and a half to go. Caruso chasing Alexander Walker keeping him in front. There’s a block. SGA. It is loose. Connley and the Thunder going to come out and prevail in this tough fun wrestling match. All right, let’s get your take, guys, on the hustle stats for Oklahoma City. Well, the effort they’ve shown on defense has been infectious. Everyone on this team continuing to jump at opportunities to come away with steals. And I don’t know if everybody’s getting in this block party flow, but that’s what’s happening tonight. They’ve done a great job of being aggressive on all the shooters. Minot’s checked in for Minnesota. Homegrren, he’s checked in for Oklahoma City. Lou Dord comes in for Williams. Outside, Alexander Walker. Six on the shot clock. fires high post. Nice jump shot. Alexander Walker’s got five points in the quarter. Such a critical part of how their offense is going to flow. Things are only working when he seems to be on the floor. Taking a look at Oklahoma City. Chad Holgren out there with Alex Caruso. And it’s Williams. Then there’s Lou Dort and it’s Joe in at the point. Now here’s Holren. He’s got 11. Thor for three. Called in by Devanchenzo. And this is exactly who you want taking that shot. He just missed it. And he drops it in from the low post. Devenzo’s got five points. Denzo has to be agile on the interior and that time finds a way to get it done. Pass to Caruso from deep. He buries it from three. Caruso’s got his third basket on the night right there. He’s going to punish you if you leave him open. He’s more than willing to take the open three when he’s got it. Reed sets a screen. Edwards for three. The shot won’t fall. And that’s exactly how tightly you have to guard him every time he steps to the arc. He’s just that good. To the middle. Stolen by Reed. Quarter two and just under two and a half minutes gone by. Pass to Edwards. Over Dort. Another shot. Edwards. A pass to Reed. Got it. 10 points for him. And how about Edwards keeping his head up and spotting the open man. Oklahoma City leading by [Applause] four. Ward outside. Pulpford with a screen on Edward down low. It’s stolen and here in the second quarter about 3 minutes played tries yet again. Well, we know Edwards has an impressive skill set, but what really separates him is the competitive edge that he plays with. He’s had four chances at the line. He’s made them all. The first free throw is good. Rudy Gobear has checked in for Minnesota. Mike Connley comes in for Devinc Chenzo. And Oklahoma City with a change here, too. Jaylen Williams, he’s checked in for [Applause] Joe. And both free throws good for Edwards. You can tell he’s feeling confident right now at the line. And when he’s on, he can be lights up. And Mark Dagnel has called a timeout. He wants to make sure everybody’s on the same [Applause] [Applause] page. Homegrren against Reed to the inside. Here’s Williams, man. How about that? Eight for nine now. His efficiency has been a big factor in helping them capture this lead. Edwards. A pass to Reed. Back to [Applause] Edwards. Inside and stolen by Williams. They’ve got numbers from V. Homegrren. And Connley grabs the miss. Timberwolves trail by four. [Applause] To the paint. Here’s Alexander Walker. Oklahoma City grabs a miss. They’ve led by as much as 10. [Applause] The layup off target and it’s Connley with the ball for the Minnesota Timberwolves. to the [Applause] inside and he dunks it down. And that really has to lift his teammates spirits right now. I’ll tell you, Grav, these second chance buckets could be what this game comes down to. Well, especially in a close game. Every possession matters. Now, there are only a few players who can hit a teammate like that in stride. Beautiful assist. [Applause] Connelly passes to Reed. [Applause] And here’s Edwards. Back to Reed. Shot clock at six. Pass to Alexander Walker and stolen by Williams. The finish and Williams punches it home. And the quickness in transition. I mean, I like watching Williams convert in these situations. And Chris Finch has called timeout. A moment to rest and confer on the game plan. Some changes for Minnesota. Julius Randles checked in for Reed. McDaniels comes in for Alexander Walker. And it’s Devenenzo in for Anthony Edwards. Wiggins, he’s checked in for Oklahoma City. Gilg Alexander comes in for Caruso. Pass to Devenenzo. Minnesota again missing. Given his range, you’d expect him to capitalize on that open and trying to get it to go even with the contact, but no good. and he’ll try to pick up the two at the line. The defense there doing whatever they can to protect the [Applause] rim. The free throw drops for Wiggins. [Applause] [Applause] and Wiggins drops them both. Timberwolves trail by eight. Randall outside. Shoots over Wiggins. Randall can’t hit. The Thunder have gotten five of seven shots to fall in the second. I just Alexander from outside and again Oklahoma City no good. Minnesota has gone one for three from downtown here in the second. [Applause] Now here’s Randall. He’s guarded closely over Dort. Randall good. Randle’s got nine. Well, Randall finding out some creative ways how to score on the inside, becoming smarter and more adept at doing so. SPA takes it himself, cranked it in off the glass, and the Thunder lead by eight. Looks like we’re starting to see a pattern here. Not afraid to get in the paint and get wet. Randall outside. outside. [Applause] McDaniels pass to Goar. Five on the clock for three. Randall. Hey, in six attempts, he’s made five. Talk about efficiency. And it feels like Randall is taking ownership on the offensive end right now, playing intense and fighting for buckets. Outside Williams. Wiggins with it. Outside Williams. Oklahoma City’s got to hurry. They got to get up a shot and it’s Shay hitting the three. Revenge. Alexander coming right back for three of his own. Outside Connley and stolen by Williams. Here’s Gilgis Alexander and slam dunk by Gilgis Alexander and they’ve made themselves easy pickings. Sloppy ball control creates an easily converted turnover. Outside Devenzo pass to Randall. Uses the glass on the layup. Randle’s got seven now in this quarter. And they had early success from the perimeter. But I don’t understand how they’ve gotten away from that here in the second. Wiggins against Randall. Back to Gilis Alexander. Shoots from 14. Second chance effort. Oh, the determination from Gilgus Alexander. Good poise there from the young Gilas Alexander not allowing himself to get rattled. Connley passes to Go. Devinc Chenzo on the wing and foul called on Jaylen Williams. That’s his first foul of the [Applause] game. 9 seconds left in the first half. Inside, here’s Randall. Oh, a clear foul there on the missed shot. So he’ll get a pair at the line. So far in this game, he’s 0 for two at the line. And he knocks down the first [Applause] one. And Randall drops them both. And that’ll do it for the first half of play. Thunder out in front. up by eight. Stay with us, folks. We’ll be back just after halftime to get the third quarter started. I love their game plan. Work the rock inside until someone stop. [Music] [Applause] This stadium is rocking right now as we return to the Western Conference Finals. Jaylen Williams really making a difference here. He’s been on the attack playing hard and going right to the rim. Yeah, nice job of carving his way to the inside with some ease. Not much resistance out there. Connley and Anne are the one of the two. McDaniels out there with Julius Randall and it’s Gobear in at the center position and that’s the group Chris Finch as we begin the second half. Now here’s Williams. Six to shoot. He shoots it. Gets rebounded by Minnesota. Go Bear’s got his fourth rebound in this one. Pass to Randall over Williams and it’s Randle that time on the assist by Connley. Connley’s got his fourth assist with that last one. Gil just Alexander against Connley. Fires from 14. Gil Alexander shot is good. Gil Alexander’s got 13. Excellent shot from SGA. I like seeing them shake loose in the mid-range. McDaniels passes to Edwards for three. Randall and the rebound goes to the Thunder. Hardenstein’s got six rebounds here tonight. Here’s Dort. Good work defensively by Randall. I don’t think the defense does enough out there to bother him. I think that one’s all on him. Just a flatout miss. And he was fouled in the act of shooting. Opportunity for a three-point play here. And every season, Randall seems to shoulder more of the offensive load. It’s what allows him to dominate sometimes. Oklahoma City making a switch here. Homegrren’s checked in. Oklahoma City leading by five. [Applause] Gil just Alexander looking it over and Connley grabs the miss. The third quarter has not started well. Just one of four and the basket by Edwards. And just an agile move by Edwards inside allowing him to beat the contact. And Mark Dagnel has called a timeout. Coach wants to speak to his guys, maybe alter some of the game plan. And Gilg Alexander’s got the ball here for the Thunder. They’ve led by as much as 10. Oh, tough finish inside by Gildas Alexander. Gildas Alexander is such a tough cover, especially at his size. Timberwolves trail by five. Two minutes into the second half of play now. Down low. Oh, got a piece of it and it goes out of bounds. Last touch by Hartinstein. And Minnesota with possession here. Shot clock at five. Gomear with a screen on homegrren. Randle. They get it back. Pass to go. The kick out to Edwards. Lets it go from deep. Edwards making it look so easy from deep. Shooting the three with confidence. That’s exactly what this team needs from Em outside. Now we’re into the third quarter. Just over 2 and 1/2 minutes played. The floater McDaniels. That’s good. McDaniels got his first points of the game. They’ve really picked up the energy level and have willed themselves back into this game. Well, they didn’t really have a choice at the position that they were. They had to fight hard. They’ve gotten that. They’ve outworked the other team just now. Here’s Gilas Alexander. 15 points in the game. So slippery in there. Gildas Alexander makes great adjustments to get what he wants. And this will be his third and fourth free throws of the game here. That free throw good from Gilas [Applause] Alexander. And so he’s able to get one of two. I’m sure he wanted to hit all his free throws, but at least he gave his team the lead. McDaniels finds Connley. Randall [Applause] outside. Pass to Edwards for the lead. And Randall the bucket. Only assist from Edwards. Randle’s got eight points in the quarter. I just love the ball movement. for Oklahoma City. They’ve gone two of five in this third quarter. Here’s Hardenstein. Williams from long range and that one goes now 10 for 13 on the night. A shot that Williams continues to work on. You love seeing these type of results. Now here’s Randall. 24 points for him. Three-pointer off the mark. That’s exactly how you have to defend him on the perimeter. You can’t allow any space. Dort pass to Gilg Alexander. Now here’s Holren. Randle pulls down the board and the defense gets bailed out by the miss. He usually converts that. It’s Edwards on the wing. Dort defending. Here’s Randall. Oh, and he got fouled on his way up. He’ll head to the line to shoot two. Randall, tough guy to guard here as he uses that frame to earn another trip to the free throw line. First one falls for him. Alexander Walker, he’s checked in for the Timberwolves. Caruso, he’s checked in for Oklahoma City. And he can’t hit the second. He was able to tie it up, but he has to be disappointed that he could not give his team down. And we see the speed and power. I mean, Williams shows off on that one. Oh, doing damage above the rim. That was our AT&T 5G slam cam. Minnesota’s gotten two of four threes to fall here in this third quarter. It’s out of bounds. It’ll be Oklahoma City’s [Applause] ball. Thunder with a lead. Caruso [Applause] outside. Outside Williams. Pass to Homegrren. The three. Fourth three. Homegrren. Yes. It’s just too easy for Hungry. Man, is he fun to watch operate off the catch. The Timberwolves have gotten six of 10 shots to fall on this third quarter right side. Alexander Walker and a foul called on the way up. So, he’ll take two from the free throw line. It’s on Isaiah Hartenstein. All right, guys. Let’s get your take on the hustle stats for Oklahoma City. Well, their D has been a major story tonight. I mean, those steals and putting pressure on the ball, clogging the passing lanes, impressive. They’ve been fantastic tonight, really enforcing giveaways and getting scores on the other end. I mean, you get a few more possessions like that, your confidence grows and you win that turnover battle. First free throw is good. And some changes here for the Timberwolves. Reed comes in for Goar and it’s Debenzo in for Anthony Edwards. No good on the second. So he hits one of two. Oklahoma City leading by four. Pass to Gilis Alexander. Back to Williams. Here’s Arstein. Nice D from Reed. Now Devenenzo Gil Alexander defending. Count that one. Devenzo’s got seven points in the game. Sort of defining the term floor general. Connley has total command of this offense. Williams on the wing covered by Alexander Walker. Homer the pass to Gilgus Alexander. Gilgis Alexander takes the contact. Timberwolves trail by four and Chris Finch calls timeout here. He wants to review the game plan. Jaylen Williams really making a difference here. Well, I hope this one is not to draw up a play, but to think about how they’re going to defend that man. He’s putting up some major numbers. Bark has checked in for Mike Connley. Williams has checked in for Oklahoma City. Joe comes in for Williams. A minute 42 left in the third quarter. Reed sets a screen for three. Devontenzo Joe grabs the miss. Joe’s got four rebounds now. Pass to [Applause] Homegrren. 124 left in the third quarter. And here’s Caruso outside. Rebounded by the Timberwolves. Randle’s got four rebounds in the game. Clark in the post. He’s guarded by Caruso. Clark the pass to Devenenzo. There’s the three. Nails it from beyond the arc. 10 points for him. Well, you want to chase him off the three-point line. Devenzo able to settle in that time. Deenzo against Gillis Alexander. Pass to Caruso. Joe. Just five to shoot. Just Alexander from outside. The triple. Shay answering. This quarter belongs to him. And that’s how you do it when you’re out in front. Don’t play it safe. Keep that momentum going. Back to [Applause] Randall. There’s 25 seconds left in the third quarter. Great D that time from Homegrren and even though he couldn’t send the shot back at him, he certainly altered it. Yeah, that’s the kind of energy that you want to see on every possession throughout the game. And here’s Joe. The three is up. Well, it’s been an exciting game. Plenty of offense as we head to the fourth quarter. Oklahoma City ahead. They lead by four. And we’re coming right back after this break to get the fourth quarter. And a moment now as we take a look at our State Farm assist of the game. And the winner today coming from an unlikely position. It’s the big fella with the sweetest pass of the day. You know, anytime a guy’s in the post and the teammates know he’s unselfish, great player movement can create an opportunity just like that. And welcome back to our coverage of game three on 2K Sports and Oklahoma City looking at who they’ve got to start the fourth. Two Jaylen Williams out there for Jaylen with an E at the three and Jaylen with an I at the five. Lugans Dort out there with Alex Caruso and it’s Wiggins in at the four. Here’s Williams drops in the layup for two. Williams has got 28 points for the game. And he is stronger than he looks, trust me. I mean, Williams has the bulk to win those tough battles inside to the middle and stolen by Williams. Dort the pass to Wiggins. Williams. Alexander Walker grabs the board. Alexander Walker’s got his fourth rebound in this one. Pass to Reed. Edwards against Williams. Left side read. Williams grabs the board. Oklahoma City leading by four. Now here’s Dort Wiggins outside. [Applause] Outside Williams back to Wiggins. It’s tipped and stolen by Edwards. Outside Alexander Walker. Pass to Edwards. Oh, Edwards powers it home. and one of the stronger finishers in this game, Anthony Edwards at his best. And Mark Dagnel has called the timeout. He clearly wants to talk it over and make sure everyone is [Applause] focused. And Minnesota making a change here. Conley’s checked in. And Oklahoma City with a change here, too. Hardenstein’s checked in and keeping us updated from the sideline, Ally Leforce. Thanks, guys. Mark Dagnel had some words for his team over the last break. This might be a close late game, but don’t tell coach they were cool as a cucumber in the huddle, and I think that resonates with their players. We’ll see if that approach works. Brian. Okay, thank you, Ally. What great action we’ve seen tonight. Hard to imagine a more entertaining game. No, this is about as high octane a game as you’re going to find. And the foul on Alex Caruso. That’s his first foul. Connley looking for an opening. Dor against Enzo. The kick out to Connley. Clock at two. Shoots over Caruso. And there’s Connley. That one’s good. And the assist by Denzo. Yeah, this is money Mike in action. An efficient shooter who does all he can to find points. Hartinstein no good. The Timberwolves trail. Now Edwards. Reed sets a screen to tie it up. That shot is off. Some solid defense from Williams. Up over Connley hits the target from 18 ft. Williams has got 30 down the stretch. He’s been flat out awesome. He helped them get the lead and now he’s making sure they keep it. Outside Edwards over Williams and it’s good off the back of the rim and in. Looks like he’s shooting with a lot more confidence here in the second half. The Thunder have gotten three of seven attempts in this fourth quarter to fall. Here’s Williams. And so he draws the foul headed to the line to shoot a pair. Just keep seeing more and more evidence about Jaylen Williams being the total package. A swingman who scores it, rebounds, passes, and can defend. Then he drops a first. Some changes for Minnesota. Gobear’s checked in for Reed. Julius Randall comes in for Clark. And McDaniels is subbed in for Deven Chinszo. Homegrid. He’s checked in for Oklahoma City. Shay Gilgis Alexander comes in for Caruso and so Connelly will bring it up for the Minnesota Timberwolves. Four-point [Applause] game. McDaniels against Williams inside. Here’s Goar. Oh, Goar rocking the rim. When Go is close like that, you know he’s going to try and ram it through. And for the Thunder, they’re shooting about 43% since the fourth quarter began. Here’s Harden. Oh, and there’s the whistle on the shot. So, two free throws for him coming up. Rudy Goar picks one up. Everyone in the building saw the obvious [Applause] contact. The first one falls. [Applause] And so he hits both. Timberwolves trail by four. Pass to Edwards. Connley. A screen on Gordon. Edwards. A pass to Randall. Five to shoot. So, it’ll be two free throws. He was fouled in the act of shooting. There’s the inside in Randle’s inside out game. And he knocks down the first one. And Randall drops them both. And the Thunder shooting a solid 53% from the floor. Pass to Williams. And here’s Gilg Alexander. He’s guarded by Connley. Door to screen on Connley. [Applause] The basket drops and he gets fouled on the shot. One free throw coming his way. Seems like Gildas Alexander’s next shot is never far off. He can get the bucket they need. That free throw good from Gildas Alexander. Timberwolves trail by five. Here’s Connley [Applause] down low. Out to the right wing. Here’s Goar and he got the whistle on the way up. So, he’ll be headed to the line for a pair. It’s on Isaiah Hardstein. And the stifle tower makes his presence felt on the offensive end. He’s really developed an array of moves on the interior. That one’s no good. Just a tough miss at the line. They’re down two baskets now. Takes one from 10 ft. Ed Williams gets the bucket on the assist by Homegrren. Williams has got 34. The Timberwolves have gone five of eight from the field so far in the fourth. And Edwards slams it in. Wow. Edwards almost makes it look effortless like the whole team wasn’t holding their breath right there. Hand stolen by Edwards. Gilgis Alexander against Connley. Good work defensively by Gilgis Alexander. Oklahoma City leading by four. [Applause] And Hardenstein slams it in. SGAA with some good movement creating an easy opportunity for a teammate.
