Fred VanVleet (18 points, 7 assists, 4-7 3PT) hit a deep dagger over D'Angelo Russell (whose own would-be game-tying three misfired) in the final minute, and then the Spurs defense coughed up more steals to pull away.
The road win was powered by stellar shooting and court vision by VanVleet and star performances by Ingram (29 points, 9 rebounds, 3 steals, 2 blocks) & Murray (25 points, 8 assists, 4 steals) notably Drummond (21 rebounds) for his clutch block on Karl-Anthony Towns' fadeaway shot late in the 4th.
In the disheartening home defeat, Towns had 18 points & 19 rebounds (6-18 FG%) and D'Angelo Russell scored 17 points (8-20, 1-5 3PT) in a misfire kind of night. Kevin Huerter had 12 points. The promising Minnesota squad still appears to need more help and vision as a team moving forward, despite the quality grab of Russell to pair with KAT.
