After Action Report

The Timberwolves fended off the Trail Blazers 92-83. Ugly basketball, but the Timberwolves did just enough. The Timberwolves owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Trail Blazers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Timberwolves bench chemistry carried them. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
