Minnesota Timberwolves at Golden State Warriors
· National Basketball AssociationAnthony Edwards has 30 points and 9 assists in the Timberwolves' 107-90 victory over the Warriors
Stephen Curry returned for Golden State after sitting out a victory over Houston a night earlier resting his sore knees. He scored 23 points.
Curry's 3-pointer with 10:38 remaining cut it to 80-77, but the Warriors again struggled to take care of the ball and make key stops.
Rudy Gobert had 17 points and 11 rebounds for the T-Wolves, who stay in town to play again Sunday at Chase Center.
Draymond Green also played after missing Thursday because of tightness in his left calf. Green, who has played with the second unit at times when coach Steve Kerr wants a veteran on the floor, 10 points, nine rebounds and six assists. He picked up his seventh technical this season.
Warriors: Golden State scored just four points over the first nine-plus minutes of its 15-point second quarter, when the Warriors were 5 of 19. The Warriors were short-handed late as Moses Moody dealt with left knee soreness and Andrew Wiggins a troublesome right ankle.
