Through 3 Quarters
Down four at the end of last quarter, the Washington Wizards have now snagged the lead. a victory is still up for grabs for either squad after three quarters, but they are up 91-88 over the Minnesota Timberwolves
The Wizards have enjoyed the tag-team combination of center Montrezl Harrell and center Daniel Gafford. The former has 22 points along with five rebounds, while the latter has 16 points in addition to seven boards and two blocks. A double-double would be Gafford's third in a row. Harrell does need to be careful, however, as he is in foul trouble with four.
Minnesota has been relying on the performance of center Karl-Anthony Towns, who has dropped a double-double on 32 points and ten rebounds. Those points put Towns near his season high of 35.
Minnesota hasn't lost 100% of the games in which they were down heading into the final period this season, so a win here would be refreshing.
