Minnesota Timberwolves vs Utah Jazz 1st QTR Game Highlights NBA Season | Nov 7, 2025
Also the trees on the floor as well. So it’s it’s it’s cool. And Jaden gets a steal right away and right to the Cook. They need more energy. They need more physicality and they need to take care of the basketball. And the physical three that shot is off the mark. He has struggled with his shot in each of his three seasons in the NBA. Ward with his performance the other night. He was a minus 25 in 29 minutes on the floor against the Knicks. hitting that. And he’s got good touch in that painted area. Jazz wrapping up eight. It’s a long time. I to go out and play five games in a row is not customary a lot for Minnesota. 30 or more. That’s a career best streak for him. A 30point streak that is away from the play. Randall gets tardy. Now in his fourth season, 88 wins, 166 on the lost side and he’s without already has and he is out for the foreseeable future. Then a block at the rim from Ant. So he’s scoring at one end. He’s You get the sense he’s set up for a big night. Back-to- back 40point games against the Jazz last season. Picking up a new run for the Wolves to start this game. Rebecca Brunson joins us up here in our broadcast location. Talking a little quick. When I watch Dante show basketball run back to his early days in the NBA, you can see what a quick release he has. her feet set first of all to get ready to let it go and then just having such a quick release. They’re already set. They’re already thing that I’ve ever seen. I think I sit and I watch her when we’re just warming up and it’s such a pretty shot. And it’s the same thing when you look at Dante. He stayed perfect offline. No, a loose ball foul as Rudy’s battling on the boards and draws the whistle. And when you go from high school to college, college to the NBA, being able to get rid of the basketball quickly is such an important skill set. I believe Dante Oh, I thought he was going to shoot that one too right there. Jaliss is pretty good as well. He gets rid of it quickly. Extra pass of Dante to Julie. Let it go pretty fast. But Dante is special in that way and he has really embraced the fact that he is going to be able to get himself his spot. It free out of bounds. Now there’s only four on the shot clock for the Jazz whose offense ranks 25th in the NBA line. They don’t shoot it well and they turn it over a ton. Nerkach, you can let him shoot that three. He misfires on this one. Randle will take a run on Marin. Little extra step in the scoop. He scores it for two. Julius showing great size and so he just sized him up and stepped right past him. Scored in all six possessions. Second season with Utah and a defensive 3second call will go against the Timberwolves. So that’ll go against Anthony Edwards. Rudy had Mahaloo going in a switch and you know breaking off the chase time in in just breaking off the chase and going to the Roman man and picking up so you can stay five on five. If you keep chasing the shoot so important part and parcel of putting a body on somebody is is doing just that. Break off the chase get the big put a body on them keep off the glass it’ll be Timberwolves basketball. It’s a 15-2 uh 15-3 run now after the market in free throw. I mean this is a Wolves wearing the statement edition jerseys for the first time the shadow gray here open at the corner and burries the three and that’s because Minnesota wasn’t running. Rudy didn’t get back in front of his line and that time Dante had to leave his man wide open and it was a mistake in transition again. Yeah, absolutely. Any means necessary. Collier’s pass to the corner deflected out of bounds. It’ll stay Utah basketball. I really feel like it’s a a possession game for the Timberwolves. You know, they have to take care of the basketball, don’t turn it over, and then they have to get better in the rebounding space. The bounce pass to Rudy underneath to Jaden. The reverse layup is good. Yank gave Rudy that ball early, but a great ways on both ends of the floor. Collier off the nerkage screen one way then the other. Kyle Filipowski who snuck into the game and Kyle with an offensive rebound. Case Bailey with a three. No. Randle out to in catch and shoot online and on target. Get three more for Ed been their problem this year. When they move the basketball they get high percentage shots. Their field percentage tells the story. Their offensive efficiency still on the move. Up by 18 early. That pass behind Rudy Goar and then promptly turn backfire. No. Rudy battling on the boards. He’s got it. He beat Nerkage to it and stuffs it through for two. And Will Hardy comes out. Fire up his squad cuz they’re down 20 here in the opening 6 minutes and 18 seconds. 11. He was really upset with the discard that time. I think I don’t think Will Hardy particularly like the no call right there. And you know, you’re also trying to fire your team up. You’re down 20. Up by 20. Just over six minutes gone here in the opening quarter. Here’s this battle between Goar and Nerkach that irritate Nerkage is trying to box him out. He grabs his jersey and pulls him down. So, it’s a pretty obvious call and he’s he’s he’s obviously upset about the no call, but then also trying to fire his team up like a team that’s been on the road for a long time. Fifth game of a fivegame road trip. Nine days and hit the technical free throw. So, he’s up to a dozen first quarter points. New the Jazz are two of 13 shooting right now. The Timberwolves are 11 of 14 and Brett Nansel does call the foul on new Kyle there if you remember with OG on an Obi in New York where he was setting a screen. OG came into the stuff. Utah knocks down a three here. OG came and checked him on was rolling to the basket. OG just came and gave them screen setter and you’re going to make people angry a lot when you do that as well as he does it. No doubt he frustrates so many defense offensive rebound and with another opportunity. He doesn’t miss this one. A two-handed flush. He’s got 14 here. Stands that corner. He doesn’t say spot up all the time. Sometimes he spots up. Sometimes he cuts. This is Bailey offline. Fifth overall pick in the draft and can’t hit the corner three. 299. He misses two in a row and Rudy clears the rebound and a timeout for head coach Chris Finch. 14 points, five of nine shooting, three threes as well. Minnesota is shooting 66.7% because that’s up perfectly. There’s a there’s so much like about Jaylen Clark’s game and you know the offense that is the seventh assist of the season. The Wolves are 4 and2 when they have Jake $5 and get $60 in bonus credits. Win or lose for FanDuel picks today the easiest way to play what they do and the emphasis they put on the fundamenting all of it and is an excellent communicator. And so Chris Vinch has just been a problem solver. So I just think figuring things out, solving problems, um getting guys to play the right way. And it’s one of the reasons why Minnesota tonight. Jaden McDaniels, a right side three that drops in for Jaden. I mean, his shooting has been 11 for 17 to three run. There’s some defense you talk about from Jaylen Clark. Randle step through right around Phil to start the game. And by the way, differential matters in cup play, too. That’s a great point. First time was 3-1 in cup play as marketing gets a dunk there. Sacramento won the group that Minnesota was in because the differential was so great. Minnesota was at zero and Sacramento was a plus 30. Yep. So that even if Sacramento had a two-point advantage, they still would have lost and wouldn’t have made, you know, the playing or in those other two. So Jaylen Clark getting it done as he normally does on the defensive end. He comes and presses up on a field. if you haven’t seen him play if you you know cuz you know obviously these games are global and you see him all over the world but this kill Alexander Walker who’s doing a great job in Atlanta by the way so Nquille you lose Nquille who is probably um there’s no one that was better at at avoiding contact with with people that are setting screens on him too speaking of Clark when he’s on the floor the Wolves have a 112 defensive rating 36-11 the Wolves are up 25 J Clark again just I mean he just is so good at chopping his feet staying in front guard you’ve got to earn your you better get your ability to get open on with him because he’s going to make you hit that shot and Randall comes away with the rebounds a tremendous contest by Jan that time inside three yes it’s great ball movement it’s it’s been what they’ve ball game. Nas had a couple of good games in Brooklyn and Charlotte. They struggled like again the ball snaps draw kick the defense to get Ace Bailey into coverage in gap help when Julius puts the ball with Nas and Julius. It’s been on the defensive end where it’s been an issue. First free throw NBA Cup game coming up against Sacramento on Friday the 14th. Get your tickets at timberwols.com to finish up against the OKC Thunder in Oklahoma City. So, it’s two home, two road, one Western Conference team, one Eastern Conference team gets into the finals. LA won it two years ago and [Music] McDaniels missed that one gets the reads a game. His shooting 52%. He’s getting it done at all three levels. Mo to shoot. Killowski by Naz Reed and bank makes it in for two. 19 minutes a game. Come off the bench for Will Hardy. Under 30 to go here first quarter. A pass. [Music] Even though Julius was not in the act of shooting, Jazz were in, [Music] but they’re three and five coming here into Minneapolis, but they’ve lost a lot of close game. They lost a one-point game at Sacramento. They beat Boston on this road trip. So, I mean, this is this is a team that Will Hardy has playing at a high level and a lot of five points. Like, he is an excellent player. a lot of great matches for him. The quarter for the Jazz Wolves have a tenth of a second. They’ll just inbound and head to the second quarter. 43 point away, but that will count.
