OKC Thunder vs. Minnesota Timberwolves Game 3 Summary

Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals between the OKC Thunder and Minnesota Timberwolves was on Saturday night at the Target Center. The Timberwolves entered the contest down 0-2 after two unfruitful performances in Oklahoma City.

Coach Chris Finch didn't make changes to his starting five despite benching Julius Randle in the fourth quarter of Game 2. Randle was joined by Mike Conley Jr., Anthony Edwards, Jaden McDaniels and Rudy Gobert. Edwards has been fairly contained by the Thunder defense.

On the other hand, coach Mark Daigneault continued to rely on his lineup of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Lu Dort, Jalen Williams, Chet Holmgren and Isaiah Hartenstein. SGA, the 2025 NBA MVP, has been nearly unstoppable in the first two games of the series.

The Minnesota Timberwolves took control of the game early in the first quarter and never looked back. The OKC Thunder went up 4-0 to start the game, but the Timberwolves quickly erased it, took the lead and dominated the rest of the way. They already had a 20-point lead at the end of the first quarter.

The lead grew to 31 points in the second quarter before the Thunder began the second half on an 11-2 run. There were some tense moments, but the hosts were able to regain the momentum and finish off Oklahoma City. Coach Mark Daigneault pulled his starters halfway through the quarter and put his bench into the game.

Game 4 of the series is on Monday back at the Target Center, with tipoff scheduled for 8:30 p.m. IST.
