LOS ANGELES, United States — The Minnesota Timberwolves, fueled by 25 points from Jaden McDaniels, cruised past LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers 117-95 on Saturday (Sunday, Manila time) in Game 1 of their NBA Western Conference playoff series.

Timberwolves dominate Lakers to start NBA Playoffs

Luka Doncic, playing his first post-season game with the Lakers after arriving in a stunning February trade, scored 37 points, and James, chasing a fifth title in his 22nd NBA season added 19 after shaking off a slow start that saw him go scoreless in the first quarter.

But the Lakers were no match for the T'Woves, who trailed by seven after the first quarter, took control in the second and never let up to score the first blow in the best-of-seven series.

Naz Reid scored 23 points off the bench -- drilling six of Minnesota's franchise playoff-record 21 three-pointers.

Anthony Edwards added 22 points, eight rebounds and nine assists for Minnesota, who led by as many as 27.
