Golden State Warriors vs Minnesota Timberwolves Full Highlights 1st Qtr | May 10|2025 NBA Highlights

It’ll be Randall guarding Draymond Green. Jimmy Butler will be defended by Jaden McDaniel. Second team all defense last year. Butler right off the bat. Aggressive miss. The put back is good. Jimmy Butler gots a clean look on that first possession. Trace Jackson Davis gets caught pushing off. Here is Edwards. really been looking to drive the ball here in the series. Struggled from three the last few games. Randall on the pull up is good. Julius Randle careerhigh 22 points per game this postseason. A little bit overzealous on that closeout by Draymond Green. I think you make Julius Randall take a three with a handoff to start the game. Jackson Davis 19 minutes had 15 points in a game two loss in Minnesota. Warriors were blown out of that game 117 to 93. Here’s Green up top. Hit four threes in game one. Missed there. Offensive rebound. Pajimki. Now Randall has Butler in the corner with a shot clock at eight. Butler puts it on the floor and gets the floater. Lot of space there coming off that ball screen into the middle again. He loves that floater from about 8 ft. Connley the lob over the head of Go. got here by beating Houston in seven games. One on the road in game seven. Minnesota easily dispatched of the Lakers in five, but had bouts where he was out of the rotation. Same goes for Jonathan Kaminga. A lot of people thought he might start this game. Kaminga played really well offensively in game two. He’ll be the first sub, says Steve Kerr tonight. Edwards couldn’t get that one. Poked by Goar. 13 rebounding advantage in this series despite the fact that they’re significantly smaller. Randall and Green battling about 20 ft away from the cup. Now He on the cut, pulls up, missed the shot and Goar tracks down the rebound. He has been so good the last three games. 33 points in game seven against Houston. 24 in game one and played well in the game two loss. Randall for three. Goar slaps it out to Edwards. Edwards no good on his first shot attempt. Soda one of five, Golden State one of four. Shot clock at eight. Edwards pulls the trigger and knocks down a three ball. Led the league in made threes during the regular season. And then a turnover. Butler and Green not on the same page in the back court. Randall up top. Connley will fire and hit. 82 Minnesota. Yeah, Steve Curr shaking his head after that backcourt turnover. And they’ve been sloppy with the ball through the first two games, but without Steph Curry, each possession even more valuable. You can’t have unforced mistakes. They had 20 turnovers in game two, which led to 22 Minnesota points. That’s been the issue when the Warriors have struggled all season has been the turnovers. Here’s Jackson Davis scoring inside against the shot blocking Goar. Three and a half minutes gone by in game three with the series tied at one. Randall on the step back too strong. Pajki another rebound. He’s an excellent rebounding guard. Butler very assertive here in the first few minutes attacking the basket but the rim protector goar is there. Butler one of two driving again on Gobar. Do spins, puts up the shot. It’s good. His second basket. And I like the fact that he finished that off with a shot. I’ve seen a lot of Jimmy Butler in the first two games come to that jump stop and immediately look to kick out when they acquired him from Miami as Randall misses a three. They were under 500. Since then, the Warriors are 28 and 11, including here in the playoffs. He’s been that big of a difference maker for Golden State. Green underneath Jackson Davis his second field goal and a quick six nothing Golden State run. Now he’s giving them what they wanted which was a little bit more size up front athletic ability to finish even if Goa is in the area and he’s already got two layups. Donley finds the cutting Edwards drives through the lane. Beautiful move. He’s gotten so good at that downhill. Always under control. He’s a great athlete and sometimes those guys will rush that shot. Great patience on that step through by Anthony Edwards to get to the other side and then a quick shot and missed by Golden State. Has Minnesota operating again. Edwards trying to shake Green. Can’t Randall goes right at the chest of Jackson Davis. No whistle. And then Randall has it knocked away by Heield and out of bounds to the Warriors. state how hard that is to go to new organization, new personalities to gel with, but more importantly, new spacing to get used to. And I think that was the hardest part for Julius Randle as Golden State turns it over again on a backcourt violation. And that’s three unforced turnovers here in the first five plus minutes. Randall told us, “My job is to do a little bit of everything, but obviously the biggest part is to make life easier for Anthony Edwards, who he said is the most confident player he’s ever played with.” Connley with the floater and Mike Connley off to a terrific start here for Minnesota with five points. Well, Golden State goes zone on that possession, but they were so extended at the top. There was a massive driving lane for Mike Connley who just took advantage of it way too easy against your perimeter shell. Gary Payeyton coming off the bench and missed the shot. Rebound Goar. So Kaminga turns out not to be the first guy off the bench. You got both posts who started game two played three minutes and Payton is the first reserves for Golden State. Edwards wrap around to go bear for the slam. just eight points in six balls for him to continue to get playing time. Things were not working well when he was on the floor with Butler and Green after he came back from injury about a month into the Butler trade. Shot clock at one. It does loosen up the defense if you take the one that’s there. Hanging and finishing is Anthony Edwards. So, how will the Warriors survive with Jimmy Butler, their next best offensive player on the bench? So far, not good. They’re stuck on eight points here for the last couple minutes. Kaminga baseline jump shot goes down. He was eight for eight to start game two. What a big shot for Jonathan Kuminga. Picks up after having some success in game two, but he’s got the athleticism to go up over the top of this length by Minnesota. Edwards lost it as he drove baseline crashes. Look at the upcoming playoff schedule brought to you by Infinity. You got game three or game four rather between Denver and Oklahoma City with Denver up two games to one in that series. TNT tomorrow. Cleveland trying to even things up with the Pacers. NBA draft lottery. Where will Cooper flag go? We will find out on Monday night. Whoever gets the first pick and then Nick Celtics followed by game four here. I think your point was accurate here without Jimmy Butler. The identity for their offense. It has to be Kaminga. I think first option. Pajky also has to be aggressive in ball screen as he is right here. Pajky no good and rebound by McDaniels. 10 of the 11 shots for Golden State have been too crazy. He understands how important it is to to get a win here at home to extend the series as they wait for Steph Curry. Boy, ton of contact a little bit late offensively. The other thing Dave it does it helps them set up their half court defense which is an elite defense. It gives them better opportunity to get set and communicate. Check in with Katie for more. Yeah, guys, Jimmy Butler said he’s not a volume shooter. Never has been and probably never will be. But he’s going to play the right way. Oh, butler the pass but can’t get it. to make it out of the same page.
