The Minnesota Timberwolves defeated the Memphis Grizzlies 117–110 on March 3 at Target Center, with Anthony Edwards leading the way on 41 points to pace the home team past a visiting squad that came in hot from three-point range. Minnesota shot 47.6 percent from the field and made 10 three-pointers, while Julius Randle added 23 points to provide secondary scoring support. The Timberwolves' defensive rating of 106.0 proved decisive against Memphis, which despite connecting on 15 threes and dishing out 27 assists, managed only 110 points on 45.6 percent shooting. Minnesota's second quarter proved pivotal—the Wolves scored 34 points to Memphis's 30, establishing separation that the Grizzlies could not fully overcome despite outrebounding Minnesota 33–52 being offset by turnovers (17 for MEM, 16 for MIN). The game finished below the Vegas total of 235.5, reflecting a defensive grind in the fourth quarter where Minnesota held Memphis to just 28 points. The Timberwolves' offensive efficiency of 114.8 underscores Edwards's explosive performance as Minnesota maintains its playoff positioning in the West.
