Winners in OT
by Jason Grodsky
Rashad and Minnesota ended the season in thrilling fashion Wednesday night.
The Timberwolves needed every one of Rashad’s 10 points to beat Milwaukee in overtime, 110-101, to put the finishing touches on the season.
Minnesota (22-60) overcame a 16-point deficit with the help of two big three-pointers by No. 1 in the fourth quarter. Rashad had an opportunity to win the game in regulation, but he couldn’t covert on a last second layup, sending the game into overtime.
No. 1 responded to his last second miss by nailing a fade away jumper to start overtime that got Minnesota on a roll as they outscored the Bucks 16-7 in the extra period.
