The Timberwolves shocked Golden State with a 124-117 overtime victory Tuesday at Oracle Arena, the Warriors' second loss in three games at home after winning 54 consecutive.
Andrew Wiggins scored 32 points and had six steals, five rebounds and four assists to lead the Wolves. Then he said the following after the victory on TNT's postgame interview: "My team is good. We can win on any given night." He later added: "If we want to make the playoffs, this is a team we're going to have to beat in the playoffs."
Play-by-play announcer Marv Albert responded to the 21-year-old Wiggins' comments by saying "Did he say 'we could win on any given night?' So we had 26 given nights," referring to the Wolves' 26 victories. Albert concluded the rant: "We vote that the delusional interview of the season," he said. "But a terrific win for the Minnesota Timberwolves, and this crowd is leaving the building in disbelief."
