Powered by a Julius Randle triple-double and a second-half explosion from star forward Anthony Edwards, the Minnesota Timberwolves defeated the Golden State Warriors 102-97 to take a 2-1 series lead in the conference semifinals on Friday night at Chase Center.

San Francisco – Minnesota trailed 82-77 with fewer than eight minutes to play in Game 3 on Saturday. The Timberwolves were a little scrambled for much of the evening. They’d committed 21 turnovers to keep the nose of the Warriors – playing without their best player in Steph Curry – out in front for much of the contest.

Last offseason, when the Knicks and Timberwolves pulled off a blockbuster trade that sent Karl-Anthony Towns to the Knicks for a package built around Julius Randle and Donte DiVincenzo, it was New York that was widely declared the winner of the deal.
