The Timberwolves secured a 102-97 victory over the Warriors in Game 3, taking a 2-1 series lead in the Western Conference semifinals, with Stephen Curry likely out until Game 6. Julius Randle delivered a pivotal performance, achieving his first postseason triple-double with 24 points, 10 rebounds, and 12 assists, while Anthony Edwards dominated the second half with 36 points. The Warriors struggled offensively in the fourth quarter, failing to capitalize on their lead and must now win Game 4 to stay in the series without Curry.
