Minnesota Timberwolves allow Rockets to snap losing skid

The Houston Rockets entered Tuesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves on a four-game losing streak, struggling to score efficiently and looking entirely lost at times during the skid.

That's no longer the case, as Mike D'Antoni's crew used a strong third quarter to vault themselves ahead of the Wolves and ultimately hang on for a win.

Minnesota actually started the game quite well, leading by nine points after the first quarter and four at halftime. But the Rockets closed the third frame on a 10-0 run and continued to click offensively early in the fourth quarter.
