Minnesota took Game 1 in blowout fashion, 117-95, even with Luka Dončić putting up 37 points. Game 2 was a different story as the Lakers put forth a much better defensive effort and tied things up at 1-1 with a 94-85 victory on Tuesday night.

The Minnesota Timberwolves have a big opportunity ahead, holding a 2-1 series lead with Game 4 coming at home in their first-round NBA Playoffs series with the Los Angeles Lakers.

The latest injury report from the Lakers for Game 4 brought some relief, as Luka Doncic was not listed with any injuries.
