The Timberwolves got a valuable win on their visit to Madison Square Garden thanks to the work of their talented duo that is becoming a difficult challenge for the rivals.
Karl-Anthony Towns found himself on a three-point play with less than 30 seconds left, enough to finish off the erratic Knicks who failed to seize the opportunity to take the game on the last shot and ended up losing 112-110.

KTA finished with 20 points and 5 rebounds, while Edwards finished with 21 points and 3 rebounds. According to ESPN data, it is the 20th game of the campaign that both scored 20 points each. With this they consolidate themselves as one of the most effective duo and put themselves at the level of Durant and Harden with the Nets and only below DeRozan and LaVine who with the Bulls have reached 25 games exceeding 20 points each.
Six wins in the last eight games have the Timberwolves in the playoff zone and with a 22-22 record they are in seventh place in the West, displacing the Lakers.
