The Minnesota Timberwolves avoided a sweep by defeating the Dallas Mavericks 105-100 in Game 4 of the Western Conference Finals on Tuesday night. This road win forces a Game 5, which will take place in Minnesota on Thursday night. The Timberwolves were led by standout performances from Anthony Edwards and Karl-Anthony Towns. The series now stands at 3-1 in favor of the Mavericks. Historically, no NBA team has ever come back from a 3-0 series deficit to win. The Timberwolves are 4.5-point favorites for Game 5, a notable position given the circumstances.
