Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards (41 points) took over down the stretch as Minnesota sent Houston (32-19) to its fifth straight loss.

With less than 10 seconds remaining, the Nets trailed by four at 97-93 and were taking the ball out on the sideline. After a bit of an issue getting the ball inbounds, Tosan Evbuomwan found Keon Johnson on the opposite wing for a quick 3-pointer that hit nothing but net and cut the deficit to one at 97-96.

The Brooklyn Nets will be facing the Houston Rockets, this time at home, for the second time in three days and they are more motivated since then.
