While the Eastern Conference's playoff picture is mostly shaping into form, the standings resemble much more chaos in the wild, wild West. With two games remaining for all teams in the Western Conference, just one game separates the No. 4 seed Denver Nuggets from the No. 8 seed.

Two of those teams, the Minnesota Timberwolves and Memphis Grizzlies, faced off on Thursday, and thanks to a 44-point outburst from Anthony Edwards, Minnesota proved victorious, 141-125. That win was enormous for Minnesota, of course, but it has major ramifications all across the standings.

Golden State moved back into the Western Conference’s No. 6 seed after the Minnesota Timberwolves beat the Memphis Grizzlies, 141-125, at FedExForum. The Warriors (47-33), coming off a brutal 114-111 loss to the San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday night, entered Thursday half a game behind the Grizzlies and half a game ahead of the Timberwolves.
