Anthony Edwards scored 30 points and the Timberwolves blitzed the Thunder for a 143-101 beatdown Saturday night at Target Center.

Minnesota led by 19 after the first frame, 31 at halftime and was never threatened by the top-seeded Thunder. Oklahoma City coach Mark Daigneault waved the white flag and removed the majority of his key players with minutes remaining in the third quarter. Truthfully, he could’ve done so far sooner.
