Malik Beasley scored 23 points, including 20 in the first half, as the Minnesota Timberwolves beat the Los Angeles Clippers 142-115 in his debut.

\"I was in the zone. I couldn\'t see anybody or hear anybody, and it just felt good,\" said Beasley.

The Timberwolves hit a franchise-record 26 3\'s in the game.

Beasley added that he\'s focused on making a playoff push with his new team.
