The West's top-ranked Minnesota Timberwolves delivered yet another blow to the Detroit Pistons with a road win 124-117.
The Timberwolves visited the Little Caesars Arena to face the worst team in the NBA, Detroit Pistons, who were aiming for back-to-back win after defeating the Washington Wizards last Monday.
Minnesota is currently in a formidable shape, its team is in first place in the difficult Western Conference and counts with two stars who are playing their best basketball to date.
Karl Anthony Towns and Anthony Edwards are proof of the offensive power the team has. And today was no exception, as each contributed with 27 points. Jaden Mc Daniels scored 23 points. In addition, It is worth mentioning the importance of Frenchman Rudy Gobert on the boards, grabbing 16 rebounds and adding 19 points.
The Pistons started strong in the first quarter, winning it 40-39. But in the second period, the Wolves put things back on track and took an 8-point lead before going into halftime.
That lead would prove decisive in the final score, as despite the standout performance of junior guard Jaden Ivey (who finished with 32 points) and the collective effort of Detroit, it was not enough to stop Edwards and company.
