Timberwolves Defeat Jazz 123-95 Bolstered by Dominant Performance from Karl-Anthony Towns and Anthony Edwards

Dominant third-quarter run by Towns propels Timberwolves to victory, Minnesota's solid defense leaves Jazz with fourth loss in five games.

Karl-Anthony Towns and Anthony Edwards led the Minnesota Timberwolves to a 123-95 victory over the Utah Jazz, scoring 25 and 31 points respectively.
Towns put on a stellar performance in the third quarter, scoring 15 of his 25 points during that period to turn the tied game into a resounding win.
The Timberwolves displayed an impressive defense, keeping four of their first five opponents under 100 points, a significant improvement from the previous season.
The Timberwolves' successful defense was further evidenced by the Jazz's poor shooting performance; only able to achieve a 38.5% field goal percentage, their second consecutive game under 40%.
Despite Lauri Markkanen's team-leading 22 points for the Jazz, poor decision-making leading to 18 turnovers significantly contributed to their loss, making it their fourth defeat in five games.
