The Phoenix Suns are in a 2-0 hole to the Minnesota Timberwolves after losing Game 2 despite 20 points from Devin Booker. The teams are back at it for Game 3 in Phoenix on Friday night.

Jaden McDaniels scored 25 points for a career best in the playoffs and spearheaded another stifling defensive performance by the Minnesota Timberwolves in a 105-93 victory over the Phoenix Suns to take a 2-0 lead in their first-round series on Tuesday night.Mike Conley and Rudy Gobert each added 18 points to help the Timberwolves offset the smothering of Anthony Edwards by the Suns , who held the All-Star to 15 points after allowing him 33 in the opener. Edwards went 3 for 12 from the floor.

Conley found Gobert with a bounce pass off the pick-and-roll for an easy slam and an 84-76 lead the Wolves later extended to 19 points, before the 17-year veteran point guard swished a corner 3-pointer that electrified the arena. The "Wolves in 4!" chant popped up in the final minutes.The Wolves used their lockdown defense to stifle two-thirds of Phoenix’s big three and a heavy dose of Edwards on the attack to deliver a 25-point win in Game 1 on Saturday.
