LOS ANGELES—Andrew Wiggins thwarted the Oklahoma City Thunder’s comeback bid, launching a game-winning three-pointer as time expired to lift the Minnesota Timberwolves to a 115-113 NBA triumph on Sunday. Wiggins’ banked in shot from near halfcourt denied new Thunder signing Carmelo Anthony a signature moment with his new club. “I could see how much time was left,” Wiggins said. Wiggins and Karl-Anthony Towns led the Timberwolves with 27 points apiece. Towns answered with another basket, and after Anthony’s three-pointer put the Thunder up again Wiggins swooped for the win.
