Indiana Pacers 91-101 Minnesota Timberwolves - October 22, 2018
Indiana Pacers 91-101 Minnesota Timberwolves
Minnesota secured the win against Indiana with a good defensive effort, along with 20 points by Jimmy Butler, and 17 and 14 by Towns.
The game stayed closed throughout, with Minnesota gaining a 9 point lead early, which was cut down to 1 at the half, thanks in no small part to Victor Oladipo, who scored 15 of his 20 before halftime. In the fourth quarter though, Minnesota went on a 12-0 run, which put them with an 84-73 lead. Minnesota held Indiana to a 38,8% FG, holding their opponents under 100 points for the first time this season.
Andrew Wiggins left the game early with a right quad contusion and did not return, but his injury is day-to-day awaiting more examination. In addition to Oladipo´s 20, Bogdanovic (20) an Turner (16) provided a good lift to the Pacers. For the Timberwolves, apart from Butler, Towns scored 17 and Okogle, who took over the minutes left by Wiggins´absence, scored 12.
