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.

In all four Sunday games, teams have a shot to even their series to 2-2 or head into Game 5 in a must-win scenario.

The Minnesota Timberwolves have better size, depth, defense and chemistry than the Los Angeles Lakers and lead the first-round series 2-1.
