Minnesota Timberwolves were no match for Oklahoma City Thunder in none of previous two games of the series.
Timberwolves were hopeless most of the time, and it was shown the most on one instance in Game 2.
Jaden McDaniels shoved Shai Gilgeous-Alexander to the ground whilst completely behind him, far from the ball.
Incident occurred 6 minutes before the game was over, with Thunder leading 102-86, and McDaniels was called with a flagrant foul.
In the press conference post-game, McDaniels shortly commented on why did he do that:
"I just wanted to foul him. I wasn't even mad, I just had fouls to use," McDaniels shortly said.
