With Karl-Anthony Towns out indefinitely because of a right calf strain, the Timberwolves will take any win, any way they can get it, no matter how it looks.
Both the Wolves and Grizzlies played some ugly basketball for most of Wednesday night, and that played into the shorthanded hands of the Wolves, who came away with a 109-101 victory.
Anthony Edwards led a late fourth-quarter charge after Dillon Brooks helped fire him up with a little war of words after Brooks fouled Edwards with 3 minutes, 13 seconds remaining.
Following that, Edwards scored eight points and assisted a Rudy Gobert alley oop as the Wolves opened up an 11-points lead.
