The Timberwolves lost a heartbreaker as the Boston Celtics won 92-90 at Target
Center last night. 

Minnesota came out strong as they shot 53.4% from the field through three quarters and took a 72-69 lead going into the fourth.  The rest of the way, it was a back and forth battle between the two teams until Boston finally took the lead for good with 4:18 remaining in the game on a Rajon Rondo lay-up. 

Damien Wilkins scored a put-back basket at the buzzer as the Wolves erased a 16-point fourth quarter deficit to steal a 95-93 win from the New Jersey Nets at Target Center last night.

Trailing by 16, 87-71, with 6:51 left in the game, the Wolves went on a 22-4 run to take a two-point lead with 22.9 seconds left.  Devin Harris hit a 7' running bank shot with 18.5 seconds left to tie the game 93-93. Wilkins then gave the Timberwolves the win after he rebounded a Jonny Flynn missed jumper, hitting a short bank shot as time expired.

The Minnesota Timberwolves announced today that the team has requested waivers on guard Antonio Daniels.
