Wolves 93, Hawks 99
From Steve Aschburner/Star Tribune:What looked at halftime to be a game the Wolves (27-35) had in their grasp -- they led 50-44 -- slipped away in the second. Atlanta forward Josh Smith spread his 32 points evenly through the game but dominated late with defense and rebounds, and backup guards Salim Stoudamire and Tyronn Lue combined for 15 timely points after the break.
