Takeaways Grizzlies: Rookie Jaylen Wells was once again tasked with defending the opponent's top player, as he guarded Edwards for most of the game. Wells held his own against Edwards and added 13 points on the offensive end.

Timberwolves: Saturday was the fourth straight game with a new-look starting lineup that included DiVincenzo starting and veteran Mike Conley coming off the bench. Minnesota is now 3-1 since coach Chris Finch made the lineup switch.

Key moment Minnesota had the ball with the game tied at 125 and under a minute to play but Julius Randle turned the ball over. It was the 19th turnover of the game by the Wolves, and perhaps the most costly.
