The Timberwolves' Towns, on the other hand, was unstoppable in the first quarter, scoring 11 points on 5-of-6 shooting in a single quarter to establish a lead for his team. In the second quarter, Towns continued his form, adding five more points, along with three-pointers from Reed and Walker, the new best sixth man, the Timberwolves opened the game with a 14-2 run to open the gap directly to 20 points. Meanwhile, the Nuggets' Jokic was completely limited, scoring only 8 points at halftime, while the outside core Murray, due to injury concerns, was only 1 of 10 shots, scoring only 2 points. Throughout the first half, the Timberwolves completely suppressed the Nuggets, taking a 26-point lead.
At the start of the second half, the Timberwolves were still firmly in control of the situation, and the difference was once extended to 30 points. Despite the Nuggets' subsequent attempts to stop the bleeding, the scene remained passive. The Timberwolves maintained a 20-point lead until the end of the game. In the end, the Timberwolves easily beat the Nuggets on the road, winning their second consecutive game and taking a 2-0 lead in the overall score.
