Timberwolves smother Suns 105-93 to go up 2-0 in playoff series

Phoenix guard Devin Booker might have known his Timberwolves history when he shoved forward Jaden McDaniels.

The incident came in the second quarter of the Wolves' 105-93 victory over the Suns, giving them a 2-0 lead in the NBA's Western Conference quarterfinal series.

Booker has played through offensive hell so far in this series when McDaniels has guarded him, and perhaps his shove of McDaniels, which drew a foul, was an attempt to rattle the same player who cost himself a chance to play in last season's playoffs after punching a wall in a tunnel near the Wolves bench.
