The Minnesota Timberwolves defeated the Los Angeles Clippers 94–88 on February 26 at Intuit Dome, with Anthony Edwards leading all scorers on 31 points while Donte DiVincenzo added 18. Minnesota's offensive efficiency of 97.6 outpaced the Clippers' 89.1, fueled by superior three-point shooting—the Timberwolves made 8 threes compared to Los Angeles's 5—and a 43.4 field-goal percentage to the Clippers' 40.5.
