T'Wolves 86
"This one was for KG.
Leon Powe made a layup at the buzzer to lift Kevin Garnett's Boston Celtics to an 88-86 victory over the Timberwolves on Friday night in the All-Star's emotional return to Minnesota.
It was a wild ending to a memorable night.
The Timberwolves had the ball with the scored tied 86-86 with 28 seconds left. Marko Jaric missed a 3-pointer and teammate Craig Smith rebounded the ball and tried to kick it back out.
But Ray Allen stepped in front and stole the pass and raced the other way with the clock ticking down. A frantic scramble under the basket ended with Powe putting back a miss just before the buzzer sounded.
The play was reviewed and confirmed that Powe just beat the horn.
Paul Pierce had 18 points and six assists and Allen scored 17 for the Celtics, who were playing their sixth straight game without Garnett, out with an abdominal strain.
Al Jefferson scored 10 of his 18 points in the fourth quarter for the Wolves."
