What happened: The Minnesota Timberwolves defeated the San Antonio Spurs in Game 4 to even their playoff series at 2-2. Anthony Edwards led Minnesota's effort on the road, with the win coming after Victor Wembanyama was ejected during the contest. The series now shifts back to San Antonio for a pivotal Game 5.

Why it matters: A 2-2 series reset turns this into a best-of-three with home court back in San Antonio's favor. Edwards delivered the road steal Minnesota needed to avoid a 3-1 hole, and the Wembanyama ejection in Game 4 reshapes the matchup heading into Game 5. The momentum swing puts real pressure on both stars to assert themselves the rest of the way.

By the numbers: Series tied 2-2. Game 4 featured a Wembanyama ejection per prior wire.report coverage.

What to watch: Game 5 returns to San Antonio with the series knotted and home court in play. Watch Wembanyama's response after the Game 4 ejection and whether Edwards' knee holds up under playoff minutes.
