The Suns (24 - 18) won their second straight game, knocking off the Timberwolves (6 - 32) 110 - 99 on Friday night. Phoenix has rebounded since dropping back - to - back games against San Antonio and Memphis and holds a 4 game lead over the Thunder for the final playoff spot in the West. The Suns were led by 21 points and eight assists from Goran Dragic, who converted 10 - of - 17 field goal attempts. Eric Bledsoe added 16 points, and Gerald Green chipped in 19 off the bench. Leading scorer Markieff Morris finished with 13 on 6 - of - 12 shooting. Recent acquisition Brandan Wright had 11 points in 20 minutes off the bench. Minnesota played well offensively but simply could not slow down Phoenix, which shot 55 percent from the field. The Timberwolves made a respectable 46 percent of their free throw attempts and recorded 54 points in the paint. Mo Williams, who scored 52 points Tuesday in Indiana, led all scorers with 26, making 5 - of - 12 three - pointers to go with five assists and three steals. Thaddeus Young added 13 points, and rookie Andrew Wiggins finished with 17 (8 - 15 FG). Wiggins, who is averaging 21 points on 48 percent shooting in January, departed late in the fourth quarter due to flu - like symptoms. The Wolves were still without Ricky Rubio, Nikola Pekovic and Kevin Martin, but all three players are expected to return in the near future. Up next, Minnesota travels to Denver to face the Nuggets on Saturday. Phoenix is off until Monday, when it hosts the Lakers
