The Minnesota Timberwolves hold a 2-1 lead over the Los Angeles Lakers in their first-round playoff series, with Game 4 scheduled for Sunday afternoon at Target Center. The series has been marked by intense defensive battles and strategic adjustments from both teams.

Tiven will serve as the crew chief for the game, with Mitchell Ervin as the other referee and Sean Corbin as the umpire. Jacyn Goble is the alternate official for the game. Ed Malloy and Gediminas Petraitis have the replay center on Sunday.

The Lakers must provide more resistance on defense and try to make Minnesota star Anthony Edwards work harder for his points again. Will a starting lineup change be their next adjustment?
