Wolves 104, Suns 116

From Rick Alonzo/Pioneer Press:
Garnett had 28 points and 19 rebounds, but the Wolves' defense couldn't contain the Suns, who beat Minnesota 116-104 at Target Center. The Wolves (25-30) fell to a season-worst five games under .500.


The most amusing part of the night had to be when a snippet of "Promiscuous Girl" was piped into the arena during the second quarter. The song features Nelly Furtado asking, "is your game MVP like Steve Nash..."

Box Score


Game time entertainment was aimed at celebrating Crunch's birthday. The PR department must have decided that if the fans are anything but impressed by the Wolves, they could be appeased somewhat by the team mascot breaking the world record for dunking over the biggest pyramid of dancers, mascots, and fire.
