The Wolves enter as favorites to win the series against the Warriors, but they were underdogs against the Lakers in the first round. Anthony Edwards starred against L.A., posting 26.8 points per game. Edwards got plenty of help as Julius Randle, Jaden McDaniels, Naz Reid and Rudy Gobert all had their moments in the series win.

Timberwolves forward Naz Reid left the game in the first half with an apparent hamstring injury, too. He dove for a loose ball and hit fans sitting courtside, and then limped off and went back to the locker room. Despite losing Curry, the Warriors still took a 44-31 lead into the break at halftime.
