The Minnesota Timberwolves defeated the San Antonio Spurs 114–109 on May 10 at Target Center, with Anthony Edwards leading the way on 36 points in a defensive grind that finished below the Vegas total of 218.5. The Timberwolves shot 44.7 percent from the field and made 10 three-pointers while controlling the glass with 49 rebounds and 20 assists, though 17 turnovers proved costly; Naz Reid added 15 points off the bench. San Antonio's DeJounte Fox and Derrick Harper each scored 24 points and shot a more efficient 47.7 percent overall, but the Spurs managed only six three-pointers and committed 14 turnovers against Minnesota's stifling perimeter defense. The fourth quarter proved decisive, with Minnesota outscoring San Antonio 34–25 to seal the win despite a sluggish third period in which they scored just 20 points. Minnesota's defensive rating of 110.2 held the Spurs' high-volume three-point attack in check, a critical factor in a playoff-caliber matchup that could influence seeding implications heading into the stretch.
