The bad news was that they lost Julius Randle to right groin soreness. The good news was that Minnesota's young guys gave the team everything it needed in a 138-113 blowout win over the Utah Jazz at the Delta Center in Salt Lake City.

Minnesota Timberwolves HC Chris Finch was on one on Wednesday. The fifth-year veteran coach earned his first-ever career ejection in a game that saw the Timberwolves defeat the Phoenix Suns 121-113.

What did Chris Finch do or say to pick up a second technical foul and get tossed in Phoenix? Apparently, the Timberwolves' head coach called the officiating crew "bozos" under his breath, which is what led to his first career ejection.

Apparently, Finch came into the day hot. His emotion was a carryover from one heck of a film session he had with the team Wednesday. “He woke up choosing violence,” said Nickeil Alexander-Walker, who had a season high 23 points.

Minnesota coach Chris Finch didn't see the end of his team's game in Phoenix on Wednesday night, but he certainly had to like what transpired after he was ejected.

The Minnesota Timberwolves landed an NBA All-Star as Anthony Edwards was named to the team for the third consecutive season.

Minnesota Timberwolves All-Star Anthony Edwards wasn’t shy about reminding the Phoenix Suns and their fans about the winning streak he continued in Wednesday’s 121-113 win. Edwards held back head coach Chris Finch after he was ejected for arguing a call in the third quarter. Then, he had the last laugh.

Minnesota coach Chris Finch was tossed midway through third quarter after a heated exchange with an official. Shortly after his ejection, the Timberwolves broke a 77-77 stalemate with a 23-9 run that spanned the end of the third quarter and than five minutes of the final period.

The last time Timberwolves coach Chris Finch coached a game at Phoenix’s Footprint Center, he didn’t finish the game after Mike Conley crashed into him and ruptured his patellar tendon in Game 4 of last season’s playoffs.

Mike Conley is listed as questionable with a right thumb sprain. If the Wolves choose to exercise caution with their 37-year-old point guard on the second night of a back-to-back, Chris Finch would once again need to go deeper into his bench than usual.

Finch was having what appeared to be a peaceful conversation with game official CJ Washington who prepared to hand the ball to Suns guard Bradley Beal to inbound. On a dime, Washington blew his whistle to assess Finch a technical foul, his second of the night after he picked up the first during the first quarter.
