Rudy Gobert matched his career with 35 points as Brooklyn Nets, who visited Minnesota Timberwolves Friday night, defeated 117-91.
While Goubert was also on 11 rebounds, Minnesota (48-33) passed Memphis Grizzlies in the Western conference ranking and approached a playoff shelf, the senior Julius Randle on the front field, including 6 of 6 points, including 3 points.
The only concern for Timberwolves is the Superstar Guard Anthony Edwards – 18 in the 18th of the season – 6:29 in the first half.
This is preparing to suspend Edwards, which has nine points, for the normal season finale against Minnesota’s Utah Jazz on Sunday.
Any player who obtains 16 technical fouls in a season is automatically suspended. Then an additional game ban is applied for both techniques that a player received later.
Keon Johnson scored 20 points for Brooklyn (26-55). Trendon Watford 15 and Jalen Wilson had 14.
The nets were left to make a terrible start, withdrawing only 7 out of the ground from 13 out of the 3-point December 13, and left six turnover behind 28-16 after the first quarter.
Wilson and Johnson came together to remove Brooklyn in the second frame before Edwards’s opposition technology at the referee Ray Acosta.
The Minnesota closed to Nets 47-41 before re-expressing control and raised to 64-52 between the circuit.
Timberwolves continued this momentum by leaving Brooklyn 28-16 behind and reaching a quarter to 98-73 to play to play, including 8 of 8 of the 16 shots, including 8 of the paint.
While Randle hit 3 of 3 for the period, Goubert (11 points) proved too much to regularly cope inside.
Beyond the last suspicion in the last framework, the main focus could not match and match Goubert’s 35 points for Utah Jazz on March 22, 2017. The 12-year Gazi matched the previous best with 3:22 left before the seventh Dunk-Nickeil Alexander-Walker feeds it.
