Kevin Durant hit 6 of 9 3-point attempts to account for a majority of his 28 points, leading the Warriors to their 19th victory in the past 22 meetings with the Timberwolves. The game was played shortly after Durant learned he had been drafted onto LeBron James' team for the All-Star Game in Los Angeles next month. The opposing All-Star captain, Warriors star Stephen Curry, selected teammates Thompson and Draymond Green, as well as Minnesota's Karl-Anthony Towns and Jimmy Butler, onto his 12-man team.
