The Portland Trail Blazers are starting their two-game road trip before the All-Star break on the wrong foot after losing 133-109 to the Minnesota Timberwolves inside the Target Center.
The Wolves led wire-to-wire, holding a lead as large as 26 as the Blazers were playing little brother all night long. The Wolves simply chipped away at the lead throughout the evening, ultimately building a double-digit lead and cruising against their division rival.
