Jerry Zgoda/Star Tribune game recap
This time, the Wolves have Marko Jaric and Rashad McCants back from the
flu (Jaric missed the last three games, McCants the last two). Both
started the game on the bench because Wittman wanted to see what kind
of conditioning they’re in. Veteran Greg Buckner also was cleared to
play after missing nine games because of a strained calf and a brief
family leave.

Al Jefferson had 20 points and 19 rebounds, Rashad McCants scored 15 points and Ryan Gomes added 14 for the Timberwolves, who were coming off their biggest loss in nearly 10 years with a 110-76 defeat in New Orleans on Saturday that was a season low for points.
