Late Run From Shorthanded Wolves Not Enough In Utah
Most teams aren’t about moral victories. The Wolves aren’t one of those teams, as they are fighting for a playoff spot. But as a fan, you have to feel good about Friday night’s performance in Utah.
The Wolves fell 106-102 to the Jazz. That’s what matters the most, we know.
But when you consider the Wolves were playing in their second game in less than 24 hours, and were without starters Jeff Teague and Rob Covington, along with key reserves Derrick Rose and Tyus Jones, this was quite the battle.
The Wolves were down by as much as 23 points in the third quarter before battling back and ultimately, Minnesota was down by just one with less than two minutes left in the fourth quarter.
