The Minnesota Timberwolves made the most of Steph Curry’s absence to level their Western Conference semifinals series against the Golden State Warriors with a wire-to-wire 117-93 win in Game 2.

The Minnesota Timberwolves made sure they didn't find that answer. The Timberwolves' stifling defense paved the way for a blowout and a bounce-back as they posted a 117-93 victory in Game 2 of their Western Conference semifinal series Thursday night at Target Center in Minneapolis. The series now shifts to San Francisco tied at one game apiece.

Edwards, the Timberwolves’ 23-year-old leader and already one of the league’s top players, had to be helped off the floor midway through the second quarter after Trayce Jackson-Davis landed on his left ankle defending an attempt at the rim.
