In what was probably the best team performance from the Minnesota Timberwolves throughout the season, they racked up season-high 37 assists.

This is no minor feat from a team who had forgotten to play in the past 4 games and looked lost and out. They showed a lot of amazing plays and came up with a much needed victory.

Derrick Rose led the charge for them with 11 assists in just 24 minutes. Tyus Jones also came off the bench and got 10 dimes of his own. This team play made sure that Minnesota took high quality, easy shots and had a direct impact on their field goal percentage. They shot 50% from the field and 37% from the 3-point line, which is very respectable and shows why they got such an easy victory today.

In their next match-up, the Timberwolves will host the Detroit Pistons while the Sacramento Kings will host the Oklahoma City Thunder in an effort to get back to winning ways.
