The Wolves trailed by as many as 19 points in the third quarter, but they were able to storm all the way back behind a huge night from Donte DiVincenzo. The 'Big Ragu' finished with 19 points on 7 of 16 shooting from the field and 5 of 12 from three-point range.

The Minnesota Timberwolves pay a visit to the San Antonio Spurs Saturday. Tip-off from Frost Bank Center in San Antonio, Texas, is set for 8 p.m. ET.

• The Timberwolves, who will be coming off a Friday night game at Houston, are 4-2 this season on the second night of a back-to-back. One of those victories came Sunday against the Spurs, who were also playing for the second time in as many nights when they dropped a 104-103 decision at the Target Center.

Overall, the team has chosen a great time to break out of their shooting slump, as Denver (rather shockingly) holds their ground, and Minnesota surges. It’s a small sample size, but the Spurs are back in the top 10 in 3-point percentage and threes made over the last three games. More of that please!
