Minneapolis, MN (SportsNetwork.com) - Andrew Wiggins posted his first career double-double to help the Minnesota Timberwolves to a 90-82 win over the Portland Trail Blazers on Wednesday. Wiggins finished with a team-high 23 points with 10 rebounds for Minnesota, which snapped a six-game losing streak overall and at home. The baby Wolves grew up tonight at times, said Minnesota coach Flip Saunders. Wiggins looked like the No. 1 overall pick tonight. He knew that we were going to him in the fourth. The Timberwolves last victory at Target Center was Nov. 19 against New York. Corey Brewer had 19 points and Thaddeus Young added 13 points in the win. Damian Lillard, who entered the contest 8-1 in his career against Minnesota, led the Blazers with 23 points to go along with seven rebounds and five assists. Wesley Matthews tallied 18 points and LaMarcus Aldridge scored all of his 10 points in the second half for Portland, which had a five-game winning streak snapped. They played with a lot of energy and they scored a lof of energy points, Blazers coach Terry Stotts said. Those plays not only gave them energy, but were a little deflating to us. Brewers 3-pointer just before the third-quarter buzzer was Minnesotas lone 3 of the game and gave the hosts a 66-51 lead entering the fourth. The Timberwolves led by 12 early in the fourth when Aldridge knocked down a 3- pointer prior to Matthews dialing in from long distance. Robin Lopez then made a tough layup off a Nicolas Batum feed to cap the 8-0 run and cut the deficit to 76-72 with 5:15 remaining. Minnesota responded with a 7-2 burst that Wiggins capped with a jumper from the elbow for an 83-74 advantage. Portland managed to trim the deficit back to five, 83-78, after a pair of free throws from Lillard. The Timberwolves nearly threw the ball away, but it was Wiggins who came up with a clutch rebound. Zach LaVine lost the ball at halfcourt when Young grabbed it. Young then almost got the ball taken away from him before a frantic sequence ensued and Brewer had to unload a deep 3 that was off the mark. However, Wiggins came up with the loose ball and split a pair of free throws. Lillard shot an off-balanced trey at the other end and Gorgui Dieng nailed a pair at the line to make it 86-78 with 48.6 seconds left. Minnesota led 20-16 after the first quarter. Wiggins capped an 8-0 run with just over eight minutes to play in the half and the Timberwolves led 44-36 at the break.

SEATTLE -- Clean shaven, looking thinner and sounding energized, Seattle manager Eric Wedge was back behind his office desk Friday afternoon It was far better look than a month ago when Wedge was being helped off the field by team personnel in the midst of suffering a mild stroke. "I feel great. I feel better than I have in 10 or 15 years," Wedge said before the Mariners opened a three-game series against the Los Angeles Angels. "I think it was the perfect storm and a lot of things happened that culminated with that episode I had a month ago. So you make some changes to make sure you dont get back there." After a month away, Wedge was anxious about getting back on the bench. It was a month filled with doctors appointments and meetings, researching and relaxing, with the goal of figuring out why at 45 years old, Wedge suffered a stroke in the first place and how to prevent it from happening again. It was before the Mariners game on July 22 when Wedge fell ill. Standing behind the cage during batting practice, Wedge first started feeling something wrong in his head, then his legs and his vision. At that point he called for Mariners trainer Rick Griffin, who immediately started helping Wedge off the field. Wedge said by the time he got to the top of the dugout steps he was "dead weight." Wedge was confused and frustrated at the feeling of having something take over control of his ....... and not being able to stop it. "Every step we took further I got a little more upset because I didnt want that to happen," Wedge said. "Then when I got to the hospital, I knew it was a pretty serious thing." After a lengthy string of tests it was determine a day later that Wedge had suffered a mild stroke. And then began the process oof meeting with doctors and specialists to determine how to prevent a recurrence.dddddddddddd "They made it very clear, they marched them in there one by one before I left the hospital to let me know just how serious this was and how serious I needed to take this," Wedge said. "Its a shot across the bow, its a mulligan, its a heads up. And Im taking it as such." Wedge has made changes to his diet and made sure to get more exercise. How he handles stress will be an ongoing battle, considering his profession is stressful by nature. Wedge also said he was diagnosed with sleep apnea, which he believes played a big part in what caused the stroke in the first place. Wedge said his oxygen range when sleep was around 80 per cent. "I mentioned that perfect storm this was a big part of that perfect storm in regards to what happened to me," Wedge said. Seattle went 13-15 while Wedge was away from the club. He stayed in contact with bench coach Robby Thompson, who served as acting manager, and GM Jack Zduriencik throughout the month, but just watched games on TV or listened on the radio. Wedge intends on staying with the club for the rest of the season and understands he needs to continue with the changes hes started. "I never would have thought that I would be able to slow myself down, but when the doctor looks you in the eye and says slow yourself down or else you know hes not joking about it. And then the next doctor comes in and says the same thing, and the next doctor comes in, you know," Wedge said. "I think when you have intensity and passion and you care so damn much, to a fault maybe, and youre doing that all day long, eventually its going to catch up to you. I think thats where it ended up with me." Cheap NFL Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys Wholesale NFL Jerseys Jerseys From China Wholesale NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap Jerseys ' ' '
