May 12, 2025; San Francisco, California, USA; Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards (5) dribbles the ball next to Golden State Warriors guard Buddy Hield (7) in the first quarter during game four of the second round for the 2025 NBA Playoffs at Chase Center. Mandatory Credit: Cary Edmondson-Imagn Images Anthony Edwards poured 11 of his 30 points into a 17-0 third-quarter flurry as the Minnesota Timberwolves moved within one win of a second consecutive berth in the Western Conference finals with a 117-110 road win over the Golden State Warriors in Game 4 on Monday in San Francisco.
Julius Randle led the way with 31 points and Jaden McDaniels contributed 10 points and 13 rebounds for the sixth-seeded Timberwolves, who have rallied from a series-opening loss to win three straight from the Stephen Curry-less Warriors.
Minnesota could clinch the best-of-seven series in Game 5 on Wednesday in Minneapolis.
Jonathan Kuminga had a team-high 23 points for seventh-seeded Golden State, which lost Curry to a hamstring injury during its Game 1 win.
The Warriors previously announced that their standout point guard would be re-evaluated prior to Game 5, with the possibility of returning at that point.
Golden State held a 60-58 halftime lead and the game was tied 68-all in the fourth minute of the third period before Edwards turned a floater into a three-point play to ignite the decisive run.
Edwards also buried a pair of 3-pointers and a short jumper among his 11 points, while Mike Conley and Donte DiVincenzo drilled shots from deep as part of a burst that lasted more than four minutes.
Edwards finished 6-for-11 on 3-point attempts and Randle 4-for-8, helping the Timberwolves outscore the Warriors 48-24 from beyond the arc. Minnesota shot 16-for-34 (47.1 percent) from beyond the arc, while the Warriors were 8-for-27 (29.6 percent).
Nickeil Alexander-Walker added 13 points and Conley 11 to go with a game-high-tying five assists for Minnesota, which needed just five games to upset the third-seeded Los Angeles Lakers in Round 1.
Kuminga used 11-for-12 success at the free-throw line to account for almost half his point total. The Warriors were unable to keep pace despite getting seven more foul shots than the Timberwolves and outscoring the visitors 28-23 at the line.
Jimmy Butler III took just nine shots and totaled 14 points with a team-high-tying three assists for the Warriors. Draymond Green also had 14 points to go with seven rebounds, while Buddy Hield scored 13 and Brandin Podziemski had 11 to complement four steals.
Golden State’s Kevon Looney was the team’s leading rebounder with eight to go with eight points.
