The Timberwolves will try to help their cause when they play the Oklahoma City Thunder in Game 3 of the Western Conference finals on Saturday night in Minneapolis. The Thunder lead the best-of-seven series 2-0,

Down 0-2 in the Western Conference Finals against a Thunder team that looks like a juggernaut, the Minnesota Timberwolves are in deep trouble as they come back to Minneapolis for Games 3 and 4. They simply weren't very competitive in either of the two games in Oklahoma City, even if Thursday's final scoreline was a bit less ugly than Tuesday's.

Alexander, Denver’s Nikola Jokic and Milwaukee’s Giannis Antetokounmpo were the only players to appear on every MVP ballot this season. It only made sense that they would be unanimous All-NBA picks as well.

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards has been named to the All-NBA Second Team, marking the second straight year​ he's been named to the prestigious list of top players.

Donte DiVincenzo, Minnesota's de facto backup PG, is really a shooting guard — and he's having a nightmarish series. DiVincenzo has scored 17 points in the two games on 6 of 22 shooting, making 5 of his 18 three-point attempts. He has as many turnovers (five) as assists. The Wolves have lost his 52 minutes by a whopping 47 points.
