Karl-Anthony Towns scored 22 points and came through during a crucial fourth-quarter stretch Thursday night, propelling the Minnesota Timberwolves to a 126-114 win over the Golden State Warriors in Minneapolis.

Ricky Rubio scored 26 points and Anthony Edwards added 25, helping Minnesota (20-44) build a four-game win streak for the first time since November 2018.

The loss was a costly one for the playoff-hopeful Warriors (31-32), who not only lost ground in their attempt to move up in the Western Conference standings, but also fell a half-game closer to the New Orleans Pelicans in their duel for the 10th and final postseason play-in position.
