Orlando Magic

The Minnesota Timberwolves nearly gave up a 26-point lead but did just enough to get the win over the visiting Orlando Magic.

The Timberwolves experienced the proverbial adding of insult to injury, losing to the Orlando Magic in overtime after point guard Ricky Rubio left the game with a sprained ankle.

The Timberwolves host Orlando at 7:00 tonight, pregame on WJON at 6:30. Minnesota is 2-1 after coming from behind to win at Brooklyn Monday night. Orlando is 2-1 but is coming off a 99-93 loss at Chicago Tuesday night. Arron Afflalo led the Magic with 28 points. Orlando is playing without guard Jameer Nelson and forward Hedo Turkolu.
