Thunder vs. Timberwolves Game 2: The Surprising Strategy That Could Flip the Western Conference Finals Overnight
The Minnesota Timberwolves started the game with a focused and professional effort behind Julius Randle, who scored 20 points in the opening half – including 3 of 3 from the 3-point line in the second quarter. The Oklahoma City Thunder, led by a more decisive Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, controlled the tempo and buried the Wolves under a 70–40 second-half run on the way to a 114-88 victory.
Despite Minnesota’s fast start, the Thunder laid the foundation early on the defensive end. Their ability to generate turnovers – forcing seven in the first quarter and converting them into 13 points – helped them stay within striking distance while their offense sputtered.
