The Minnesota Timberwolves shrugged off the absence of Anthony Edwards and Rudy Gobert to cruise past the Milwaukee Bucks 139–106 on Tuesday, powered by a dominant all-round performance from Julius Randle.
Game Highlight
Randle starred with 29 points, eight rebounds, and six assists as Minnesota claimed a sixth win in seven games. Bones Hyland provided a spark off the bench with 23 points, while Naz Reid added 19 to maintain the Timberwolves’ offensive momentum.
Minnesota seized control from the opening tip, racing to a 38–20 first-quarter lead behind sharp perimeter shooting. Jaden McDaniels scored 14 points in the period as the Timberwolves knocked down eight three-pointers and carried a commanding 76–45 advantage into halftime.
Milwaukee, without Myles Turner due to illness, briefly cut the deficit to 18 in the third quarter but never seriously threatened. Minnesota continued to punish the Bucks from beyond the arc and forced 20 turnovers, converting them into 28 points.
By The Numbers
The Timberwolves shot 52.4% from three-point range and nearly 60% overall. Giannis Antetokounmpo led Milwaukee with 25 points. The win completed a season-series sweep for Minnesota and levelled the all-time rivalry at 36 wins apiece.
