The Phoenix Suns (24-21) play the final of their homestand against the Minnesota Timberwolves (25-21) on Wednesday.

The Timberwolves outscored Phoenix 30-14 over the next 10 minutes to deliver a 121-113 road victory over a team it is jostling with for position in the middle of the Western Conference standings. Wednesday’s bout was very reminiscent of Minnesota’s first-round sweep over the Suns last spring.

No matter how badly the Phoenix Suns may want Jimmy Butler, there just doesn't seem to be a viable way for them to get him. Nobody wants the Bradley Beal contract. Even if someone did, Beal himself doesn't seem eager to drop his no-trade clause to help the Suns dump him.

The Phoenix Suns couldn’t cover their weaknesses and flaws in Wednesday’s 121-113 loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves before a sellout crowd of 17,071 at Footprint Center to end a three-game homestand.
