Spurs struggle continues in Minnesota, 95-108.

The Timberwolves bite was too hard tonight.

The Spurs looked to be in recovery mode, bursting at the horn into a 10-0 run, but Karl-Anthony Towns swatting Brandon Ingram's layup attempt would prove to be a bad omen. Towns would make life miserable for Dejounte Murray tonight, as he went 4/11 on just 8 points and 5 assists, failing to score down low with the UK center at large. Brandon Ingram, however, had the worst game as a Spur, going 3-12 with 6 points and 2 turnovers. At halftime, Ingram had a goose egg on the scoreboard.

While the going was good, Avery Bradley stole the ball and made it 18-8, and Murray had his lone highlight move with a nice spin in response to an equally nice pick set by Kyle O'Quinn--who had a career high 29 points, with 12 in the first quarter as the Spurs led 27-16.

Spoiling O'Quinn's career high, the Timberwolves took control thanks to 27 points by Derrick Rose in the form of a 13-2 run. The Spurs started turning the ball over, and soon the T'Wolves led 44-51 at halftime, blitzing the Spurs 35-17 in the second quarter.

Brandon Ingram would catch the rebound and dunk the ball through the net, slim pickings on the night, as the Timberwolves kept the Spurs at bay. The road team couldn't muster rhythm on the court, at least not enough to make a comeback as the lead got as little as ten points.

Rudy Gay had 15 points, but went 5/12. Patty Mills dropped in 13. Jeff Teague surged for 20 points, despite a gutsy defensive effort by Avery Bradley early on. Towns had a double-double: 12 points, 12 rebounds. His team shot 61% overall, as the Spurs tarnished down to 43% as a unit, making only five 3PT shots--one better than their trip to Chicago. Andrew Wiggins scored 13.
