Whether it was tussling with Karl-Anthony Towns or Patrick Beverley, Jae Crowder had a busy night on Wednesday.
The Minnesota Timberwolves hosted the Phoenix Suns, and the game got intense in the first half. Towns dunked on Crowder in the final minute of the second quarter. Shortly thereafter, Crowder got upset and got into it with Towns. Towns pointed to his own head as a way to tell the crowd that he had gotten into Crowder’s head.
Patrick Beverley unlocked another level of Karl-Anthony Towns and it’s absolutely magnificent.

The players got hit with double technicals for the incident. Crowder also racked up a flagrant foul for his contact with Beverley while contesting a shot.
Beverley also got a tech for putting a ball near an opponent’s face.

The Timberwolves are having their best season since 2003-2004, when they had Kevin Garnett, Latrell Sprewell and Sam Cassell. Towns is feeling successful and supported by some other talented teammates, and now he has the confidence to mix it up with some other top teams. The Timberwolves are not a joke anymore.
