The Minnesota Timberwolves rallied from a 24-point deficit to forge a late tie in a 116-115 loss to the Golden State Warriors that suggested they're not far from finding their groove.

Karl-Anthony Towns likely is the player the Knicks can least do without, especially with Mitchell Robinson still unable to practice.

The Memphis Grizzlies are in action at home against the Minnesota Timberwolves on MLK Day. Follow along for live updates.

Even Shaq has been well impressed with the way Karl-Anthony Towns has been playing for the Knicks this season.

Randle played his heart out for the Knicks, but this new version of their offense is much more potent without his low post scoring clogging up the paint. Jalen Brunson has room to breathe, and he can conserve his energy more with Towns, O.G. Anunoby, and Mikal Bridges all added to the team.

The Wolves’ ability to overwhelm teams with a double-big lineup of Towns and Gobert is gone as Randle isn’t a floor spacer and isn’t a true big. He’s a wrecking ball power forward who is best with the ball in his hands.

Minnesota Timberwolves coach Chris Finch is asking for more production from center Rudy Gobert ahead of the team's matchup against the host Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday.

The Minnesota Timberwolves need to get in on the Cam Johnson sweepstakes, if they aren’t already. A playoff team that’s sorely in need of a very specific archetype, Johnson’s just the right 3-and-D forward for a team that isn’t going to make it back to the Western Conference Finals at this rate.

The Minnesota Timberwolves are now only a game above .500 after their 108-106 loss to the Memphis Grizzlies. Minnesota is the No. 9 seed in the Western Conference, and while that puts them in a Play-In Tournament spot, they are striving for more. As a team that went 56-26 last year, they have work to do.

If the Minnesota Timberwolves decide to trade Julius Randle, the Charlotte Hornets would be a great destination.
