Jaden McDaniels scored 25 points, Naz Reid added 23 with six 3-pointers, and the Minnesota Timberwolves overcame Luka Doncic's 37-point Lakers playoff debut for a 117-95 victory over Los Angeles on Saturday night.

The Minnesota Timberwolves beat the Los Angeles Lakers 117-95 in Game 1 despite Luka Doncic's 37-point performance.

It was just over a year ago when Luka Doncic sent the Minnesota Timberwolves home in the Western Conference finals. Doncic's jersey and supporting cast have changed, but the Wolves will have the chance to avenge that defeat when they meet the Los Angeles Lakers in the first round of the West playoffs,
