CLEVELAND — The Minnesota Timberwolves are having an off night. They made just two field goals in the first quarter while falling behind 30-10 against the Cavaliers. The Timberwolves missed their first 16 shots from the field before All-Star Anthony Edwards drained a 3-pointer with 4:56 left. By then, the Cavs were already leading 24-8. Minnesota didn't get its second bucket until Naz Reid dropped a layup at the buzzer. The Timberwolves were just 2 of 21 in the opening period. The two field goals were a season-low in the NBA for a first quarter, and Minnesota's 12 points matched the club's fewest in the opening 12 minutes this season.
