The Minnesota Timberwolves played without Karl-Anthony Towns for the first time this season but Anthony Edwards came through, outplaying Ja Morant down the stretch and carrying the Wolves to the win. The Wolves frustrated Morant with a strong defensive game plan, and Jaylen Nowell poured in 24 points off the bench to provide some scoring punch. Ben Beecken (@bbeecken) breaks down what was best about Chris Finch's game plan, and what to make of this game: bad Grizzlies loss or good Timberwolves win?
