NBA Crew Chief Kane Fitzgerald met with pool reporter Andy Larsen of KSL.com after the game between the Timberwolves and Jazz in Utah today. Here is the transcript of that interview:

Q: Why did you assess the technical fouls on Karl-Anthony Towns?

Fitzgerald: The first technical foul was assessed during the review for the dead ball contact for the elbow to the face to Crowder. It was a dead ball contact technical foul. The second technical foul was for continuous complaint. Three or four plays in a row he was complaining and a technical foul was given.
