The Los Angeles Lakers were handed their most humbling defeat of the season, falling 121-92 to the league leading Oklahoma City Thunder in a game that was effectively over by halftime.

The Timberwolves are 4-2 in the last six games and 6-2 since Anthony Edwards return. While the record is impressive, Minnesota has beaten Washington, Dallas, Sacramento twice, and Utah twice with losses to Denver and New York. Minnesota actually hasn’t beaten a team with a winning record yet and can with a road game at Phoenix next.

And while it didn't turn out to be the long-term fit he'd hoped, he still fondly remembers his time there. Now on the Chicago Bulls, he looks on the verge of being a first-time All-Star player.
