After missing NBA playoff basketball for 14 seasons, it was back at the Target
Center on Saturday night in Game 3 of a first-round matchup between the Wolves
and Rockets.
Behind the energy (you could feel it through your body in the arena) of a
sold-out crowd, the Wolves led 52-51 at halftime.
Jimmy Butler led the Wolves with 13 points, while Andrew Wiggins and Derrick
scored 10 each. Karl-Anthony Towns is on pace for a double-double with six
points and nine rebounds.
With the Rockets up 2-0 in the series, this is as close to a must-win game as
you’ll get. We’ll see if the Wolves can keep it up in the second half.
