The Thunder dominated the first two games of the series, and the Timberwolves have to find offense somewhere.
In the third quarter of the Timberwolves’ Game 1 loss to Oklahoma City, Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander tried to drive right past his cousin, Nickeil Alexander-Walker. Shai fell down, and the official called a foul on Nickeil.
While Oklahoma City star Shai Gilgeous-Alexander drew 15 more free-throw attempts in a dominant 118-103 Game 2 win — the most he’s drawn in these playoffs — Timberwolves defensive star Jaden McDaniels wanted the league’s new MVP to really feel a late foul.
