Warriors fend off Timberwolves 116-115 behind Curry's 31 points to climb back to .500
Andrew Wiggins added 24 points for a depleted Warriors team seeking a spark on the last stop on a four-game trip after falling below .500 for the first time this season in a loss Monday at Toronto.
Anthony Edwards and Donte DiVincenzo each scored 28 points for the Wolves, who trailed by 24 points late in the first quarter and fought back for a 108-all tie with 1:07 left.
After Gary Payton II stepped out in a backcourt trap, DiVincenzo took an easy layup to cut the lead to 113-112 with 12.1 seconds left and promptly fouled Payton. He missed the second free throw, but Wiggins grabbed the rebound and Curry sealed it with two foul shots.
Timberwolves: Whether the 8:43 p.m. tipoff time or the absence of intense opponents Green and Anderson were factors, the lifeless start was concerning for a team struggling to sustain momentum. The Wolves missed their first eight shots and kept the fans standing for the first 4:16 until they scored.
