After Action Report
The Timberwolves squeaked past the Pistons 96-91. The Timberwolves won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Timberwolves answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Pistons' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
