Sengun managed to commit three violations at once: He traveled, double-dribbled, and was in the lane for 3 seconds.

We've been playing with fire against Houston and finally got burned. Green got hot and we got sloppy.

Jalen Green tied his career-high in scoring tonight. Good work, Minnesota.

You could feel the game changing in the third quarter, but especially when the Rockets went on that 13-2 run or whatever it was. Chris Finch stuck with that lineup a bit longer than he maybe should have. Doesn't feel like Minnesota ever fully recovered. What a disgusting loss.

The wolves just got nothing from none Dlo/Ant offense. Rudy was fine but not dominant

New career-high for Jalen Green. I hate it.

Ugly. Ant was bad. A bit too cocky after that last one maybe. Not many good things to say about this one.

With 5:07 left in the third quarter, Jaylen Nowell made a three-pointer to tie the game at 74-74.

Houston would then go on a 13-3 run and eventually finish the quarter with a 90-81 lead. Minnesota was outscored 16-7 in those final five minutes.

Basketball is a game of runs, but man... the Timberwolves cannot let these bad teams go on stretches like that. That 13-3 run was with Austin Rivers, Anthony Edwards, Jaylen Nowell, Nathan Knight, and Naz Reid on the floor. They have to be better than that. Period.

We need another vet that can actually play. If we dont have Prince or Slowmo we cave under any pushback. The next 5 will test our mettle. Id really like to hand it to the Pelicans and Sac but Im less optimistic than this morning.

Naz Reid looks like he is being phased out as Knight is getting more love. Wish I hadn't picked him up in Fantasy. Good chance he is gone soon, but not expecting Wolves to recoup much more than a second rounder.
