T-Wolves End Horrible Season With OT Win Against Bucks

Sessions records third straight double-double

Share

(Newser) – Randy Foye scored 10 of his career-high 32 points in overtime to help the Minnesota Timberwolves finish a forgettable regular season on a winning note, 110-101 over the Milwaukee Bucks on Wednesday. In what might have been the end of Larry Krystkowiak's tenure as coach, the Bucks blew a 16-point third-quarter lead and let Foye and the Wolves blow by them in extra time.

Milwaukee (26-56) closed by losing eight straight and 12 of 14. The Wolves (22-60) hope to land the same lottery luck the Bucks had three years ago, when they were awarded the first pick in the draft and took Andrew Bogut out of Utah. Bogut had 24 points and 15 rebounds, and rookie Ramon Sessions scored a career-high 25 points to go with 14 assists.
