It was a bad night for the Cleveland Cavaliers as they played the Minnesota Timberwolves away from home. The team got blown out by 28 when it was all said and done, and LeBron James was disgusted with his team’s performance.
During the third quarter with frustrations high, Andrew Wiggins got served on the wrong end of a play by Isaiah Thomas, who punched his arm across his neck as he went straight to the floor. The officials determined that it was a flagrant 2 foul and ejected him from the court.
As you can see from the score, the Cavs were down 30 at that point.
King James only scored 10 points and pulled down 8 rebounds. IT only had 9. Kevin Love finished with 3 points. Jeff Green and Kyle Korver were leading scorers.
On the other side of the court, Andrew Wiggins, Karl-Anthony Towns and Jimmy Butler held it down for the ‘Wolves, scoring 25, 19 and 21 points on the game respectively.
Even Tyus Jones had some plays in the game, both good and bad.
After the game Thomas said he apologized to Wiggins and only did that because he’s gone for steals multiple times before and slapping his hand across like that worked.
Not in this occasion.
