Regular Season Round 128: Minnesota T. - Brooklyn N. 106-122

Date: March 16, 2015
Joe Johnson scored 22 points, rookie Bojan Bogdanovic had 21 and the Brooklyn Nets beat the short-handed Minnesota Timberwolves, 122-106, on Monday night. Thaddeus Young chipped in 19 for the Nets in his first game against Minnesota since being dealt to Brooklyn for Kevin Garnett at the trade deadline. The Nets, who entered play three games out of the eighth playoff spot in the Eastern Conference, won their second straight following a five-game losing streak. Kevin Martin scored 23 points and Zack LaVine added 20 for the Timberwolves, who had just eight healthy players and were missing three starters due to injury. Garnett sat out with a sore left knee. The Nets closed a competitive first half on a 17-4 run to take a 67-55 lead into the break. Brooklyn shot 57.8 percent from the floor on the night, led by Bogdanovic, who went 10 for 15. Minnesota took its only lead of the night on a short runner by rookie Adreian Payne that made it 51-50 with 4:31 to play in the first half. But Bogdanovic answered with two quick baskets and Young converted down low to restore the Nets' cushion. Later, Brook Lopez hit back-to-back baskets down low and added a free throw to help push Brooklyn's lead into double figures for the first time. Lopez's success inside was part of a theme for the Nets, who scored 40 points in the paint in the first half and 78 for the game. LaVine hit three 3-pointers in the first quarter, and the NBA slam dunk contest champion briefly electrified the crowd with a vicious slam in transition midway through the third quarter.
