The Minnesota Timberwolves showcased their dominance yet again with a decisive 122–94 victory over the Miami Heat on Tuesday night. With rising star Anthony Edwards leading the charge, the Wolves dismantled Miami on both ends of the floor, delivering their second convincing win over the Heat in a matter of days.
Edwards poured in 26 points while commanding the offense with his usual blend of explosiveness and poise. He was flanked by Rudy Gobert, who patrolled the paint with authority, and Jaden McDaniels, whose two-way impact helped seal the Heat’s fate early in the second half.
Minnesota, now riding a three-game win streak, appears to be finding its stride as the season deepens. This performance marked yet another reminder of their Western Conference ambitions, especially given their ability to consistently handle a respected opponent like Miami.
For the Heat, the lone bright spot was the return of Tyler Herro. After sitting out since early December with a toe injury, Herro rejoined the lineup and offered glimpses of his scoring ability, though Miami struggled to match Minnesota’s intensity. The team continues to battle injury concerns and inconsistency, a troubling trend as playoff positioning begins to matter more with each game.
Elsewhere in the league, Tuesday’s NBA action featured strong performances from marquee names. LeBron James and Luka Dončić both led their teams to victories, adding another layer of star power to a night that belonged, in the end, to the Timberwolves.
