The Minnesota Timberwolves defeated the San Antonio Spurs, 102-94, at Target Center on Wednesday night.

The favored Timberwolves (16-4) unsurprisingly held a three-point lead after one, but the Spurs (3-17) roared back in the second to eliminate their deficit and take a seven-point advantage into halftime. However, Minnesota would re-establish its dominance in the second half, knotting the game via a 25-18 edge in the third before outscoring San Antonio, 31-23, in the final 12 minutes for the hard-fought win.

Devin Vassell led the Spurs with 22 points, adding three rebounds, two assists, one steal and one block. Keldon Johnson generated a 21-point, 10-rebound double-double that included three assists, two steals and one block. Victor Wembanyama and Zach Collins produced 12 points each while pulling down 10 and eight rebounds, respectively, with Collins also dishing out four assists. Doug McDermott netted 11 points.

Mike Conley paced the Timberwolves with 18 points, supplementing them with four rebounds, four assists and three steals. Anthony Edwards delivered 17 points, seven rebounds, six assists, one block and one steal. Rudy Gobert generated a 16-point, 20-rebound double-double that included two assists and two blocks. Naz Reid registered 15 points, nine rebounds, two assists and one block. Karl-Anthony Towns finished with 14 points, 10 rebounds, two assists and one block.

The Spurs return home to host the Chicago Bulls on Friday night, while the Timberwolves visit the Memphis Grizzlies on Friday night as well.
