The Minnesota Timberwolves ( 16 - 36 ) defeated the Chicago Bulls ( 27 - 23 ) 112 - 105 on Saturday . Chicago carried a six - point lead heading into halftime , but it was clear their tired legs let them down in the second half . The Timberwolves outscored the Bulls by 12 points over the final three minutes and that was truly the difference in the game . A key for the Wolves was the rebounding , as they snatched down 45 boards to the Bulls 31 . Chicago had to play this game in the second half of a back - to - back set and it was clear this shorthanded roster could n't muster up the energy to win . In fact , Chicago was missing Jimmy Butler , Nikola Mirotic and Joakim Noah for this game . Pau Gasol was able to play after a one - game absence , as he tallied 25 points , eight rebounds , three assists and two blocks in the defeat . Derrick Rose also played well , as he accumulated 18 points , 10 assists and five rebounds in the loss . Chicago has now lost 11 of their last 16 games . Up next for the Bulls is a matchup against the Charlotte Hornets on Monday . This gives Minnesota a two - game winning streak , with both wins coming against very good teams . The Timberwolves were horrible from three - point range , as they went 1 - for - 12 , but shot nearly 59 percent from inside the arc . The big men were key in this game , as Karl-Anthony Towns went for 26 points and 17 rebounds , while Gorgui Dieng amassed 24 points , 12 rebounds and seven assists . Minnesota will look to extend their modest winning streak to three games on Monday when they host the New Orleans Pelicans .
