MIN @ POR ScoutingMIN @ POR Scouting
Welcome to the scouting desk. The coffee is cold, the film is play-by-play, and somebody has to explain what happened.
Every game has a hinge — a stretch where it was decided, usually while everyone was watching something else. Start where the evidence lives: the Lineups' face-offs say which five actually won their minutes; the Possessions ledger says who ran ahead of the night's own pace; the Shot Chart says where the points really came from, which is rarely where the highlights were. When all three agree, that is the story. When they don't — that is why this desk has a chair.

Sharpe and Clingan power the Trail Blazers to a 106-98 victory over the Timberwolves
PORTLAND, Ore. -- — Shaedon Sharpe scored 33 points, Donovan Clingan narrowly missed a triple-double with 17 points, 13 rebounds and eight blocks on Wednesday, and the Portland Trail Blazers beat the Minnesota Timberwolves for the second straight night 106-98.
Anthony Edwards scored 24 points as Minnesota squandered an early lead and dropped its third straight game.
The teams entered the fourth quarter tied before Portland took control behind the defense of Clingan, who had four blocks in the period as Minnesota missed 10 of its first 11 shots to start the final frame.
Portland extended its lead to double digits for the first time on free throws by Sharpe to make it 89-78.
Takeaways Wolves: Minnesota played without starting point guard Mike Conley . Conley played in the first two back-to-backs of the season, but resting him Wednesday is part of a bigger plan for the 37-year old point guard. “We’re not a rest team generally ... But we had the mindset this season to be a little more proactive with Mike," Wolves coach Chris Finch said.
Trail Blazers: The Blazers were without starting point guard Anfernee Simons , who left Tuesday’s game with shortness of breath. “He just didn’t feel very well today,” head coach Chauncey Billups said. Billups said he expected further tests and that Simons doesn't seem worried. Portland was also without Robert Williams, who is being held out of back-to-backs.
Key moment Shaedon Sharpe’s put-back slam dunk with 5:26 left in the game put Portland up 91-83, sending the home crowd into a frenzy.
Key stat Minnesota shot 7 for 39 (18%) from the 3-point line. The Wolves entered Wednesday ranked fourth in the NBA in 3-point percentage.
