- The Oklahoma City Thunder secured a 114-88 victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves on Tuesday in the opening game of the Western Conference championship series at Paycom Center.
- The Thunder's youthful and tenacious 'AAU' defense, as described by Anthony Edwards, limited the Timberwolves to making just under 35% of their shots and forced 17 turnovers.
- Several Minnesota players struggled with decision-making and shooting, connecting on just 15 of 51 three-pointers while Edwards scored 18 points on 13 shots.
- Anthony Edwards described the situation as challenging to understand since it kept changing, and committed to improving by off-ball movement and increased effort for Game 2.
- The Timberwolves must solve Oklahoma City's defense to avoid a 2-0 deficit, while coaches expect the series to tighten as Minnesota looks to bounce back Thursday.
