MINNEAPOLIS — Naz Reid had 27 points, 13 rebounds and seven assists for the short-handed Minnesota Timberwolves in a 116-101 victory over Oklahoma City that stopped the Thunder's seven-game winning streak. Anthony Edwards scored 23 points and Jaden McDaniels added 21 points to propel the Wolves into the All-Star break with an inspired performance against the West-leading Thunder behind a small-ball strategy necessitated by the absence of their starting frontcourt. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander had 24 points and nine assists to lead the Thunder after shooting 2 for 13 in the first half. Gilgeous-Alexander had his streak of 25-point games end at 22.
