Jordan Clarkson scored 20 points, including two free throws with less than a second left in overtime, to lift the Los Angeles Lakers to a 101-99 win over the Minnesota Timberwolves on Wednesday.
The Lakers were able to win for the second time in three games when Clarkson pulled down the rebound after Andrew Wiggins blocked Wayne Ellington's layup. Zach LaVine pushed Clarkson from behind, and the latter drained both shots from the charity stripe.
Jeremy Lin scored 19 off the bench and Ed Davis added 14 points and nine rebounds. Ryan Kelly and Tarik Black scored 11 apiece.
Minnesota lost for the second time in three games despite 27 points on 8-of-16 shooting from Wiggins. Chase Budinger scored a season-high 22 and LaVine contributed 18.
