Thunder contain Timberwolves' Anthony Edwards, Julius Randle in Game 4 - ESPN
MINNEAPOLIS — With the Minnesota Timberwolves' season on the brink after one of the quietest offensive nights of the postseason for Anthony Edwards, their 23-year-old star defended his approach in Monday's 128-126 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder in Game 4 of the Western Conference finals.
Thunder fend off T-wolves 128-126 to take 3-1 lead behind SGA’s 40-point game
MINNEAPOLIS: Shai Gilgeous-Alexander had 40 points, 10 rebounds and nine assists in a steely performance befitting the NBA MVP, and the Oklahoma City Thunder snapped back from a 42-point loss by beating the Minnesota Timberwolves 128-126 in Game 4 on Monday night to take a 3-1 lead in the Western Conference finals. Jalen Williams scored 34 points on 13-for-24 shooting, including 6 of 9 from 3-point range, and Chet Holmgren added 21 points, seven rebounds and three blocks in a statement game in his hometown that helped the Thunder stave off several pushes by the Wolves to tie the series. Gilgeous-Alexander went 12 for 14 from the free-throw line, making a pair with 6.1 seconds left to stretch the lead back to three. The Thunder fouled Anthony Edwards with 3.5 seconds to go, and his intentional miss of the second one to try to keep possession was tracked down in the corner by Gilgeous-Alexander and flung out of bounds in attempt to drain the clock. The Wolves had one more inbounds pass with 0.3 seconds remaining that Williams grabbed to send the Thunder back to Oklahoma City for Game 5 on Wednesday with the chance to advance to the NBA Finals. Edwards was limited to 16 points, and Julius Randle was also bottled up by the Thunder’s relentless defense led by Luguentz Dort. Nickeil Alexander-Walker and Donte DiVincenzo each went 5 for 8 from 3-point range to lead a second straight onslaught of bench offense to keep the Wolves close all night, but the Thunder always had an answer for the mini-runs they managed.
