The Minnesota Timberwolves defeated the Washington Wizards 120–109 on November 19 at Target Center, with Julius Randle and Naz Reid combining for 60 points to power the home team. Randle led all scorers with 32 points, while Reid added 28 in a dominant two-man offensive display. Minnesota shot 44.7 percent from the field and made 13 three-pointers, controlling the game through a balanced attack that generated 28 assists against just 9 turnovers. The Timberwolves built their advantage early, outscoring Washington 34–29 in the first quarter and 37–17 in the second to establish a commanding lead. Washington's Kawhi George paced the Wizards with 23 points, but the team's 17 turnovers and 43 total rebounds proved costly; they shot 48.9 percent but couldn't overcome a third-quarter collapse where Minnesota held them to 23 points. Minnesota's defensive rating of 110.9 and 11 steals stifled Washington's offensive rhythm, while the Wizards' 122.3 defensive rating highlighted their inability to contain Randle and Reid. The victory solidifies Minnesota's position in the Western Conference race as Washington faces mounting pressure to correct its turnover issues.
