Unless Toronto is forced to play another season there, or unless the Timberwolves and Raptors both somehow make it to the finals, Sunday was the only NBA game the Wolves will likely ever play in Tampa, Fla.
They will go into the record books as 1-0 after beating the Raptors 116-112.
Ricky Rubio came into the night having hit just eight three-pointers on the season, but he shot 4 of 8 from deep and it wasn't a coincidence that Rubio played his best game in a while that the Wolves won even with D'Angelo Russell out again because of left leg soreness.
