PHOENIX -- A furious fourth quarter made Minnesota a winner on the road for just the second time this season. Custom Oakland Athletics Nike Jerseys .Andrew Wiggins scored 25 points, Karl-Anthony Towns added 22 and the Timberwolves rallied from a 10-point, fourth-quarter deficit to beat the Phoenix Suns 98-85 on Friday night.Eric Bledsoe scored 23 for the Suns, who were just back from a six-game road trip.Minnesota used a 27-6 outburst to quickly erase the Phoenix lead and pull away, snapping a three-game losing streak.The Timberwolves outscored Phoenix 31-10 in the fourth quarter.I think that was our best fourth quarter of the year, Minnesota coach Tom Thibodeau said.Phoenixs last field goal was Bledsoes driving layup with 9:06 to play.The Suns committed a season-high 26 turnovers, resulting in 23 Minnesota points. Phoenix also was just 6 of 26 from 3-point range.Turnovers, defense, you know, the whole nine, Bledsoe said. We did everything possible to lose this game tonight.All five Timberwolves starters reached double figures.They searched and they searched until they found something that worked, Suns coach Earl Watson said, and they stayed with it, which was Wiggins in pick-and-roll coverage.Brandon Knight added 15 points for Phoenix but only two in the second half. Devin Booker scored 11.For much of the game, it looked like the Timberwolves were headed for another loss in what has been a disappointing start to the season.I think its just us coming to a point where we didnt want the same story written about us, Towns said. I think were all tired of reading the same articles and hearing the same chatter from everyone how our third and fourth quarters are a problem.Phoenix led by as many as 11 in the third quarter and was up 77-67 early in the fourth. But the Suns missed four of six free throws while the Timberwolves went on a 16-3 run. Towns grabbed a loose ball and scored inside to cap the surge and give Minnesota an 83-80 lead with 5 1/2 minutes to play.The Timberwolves stretched it to 90-83 with 3:58 remaining when Wiggins string of 15 consecutive missed 3-pointers came to an end.Things werent going well in that game, Thibodeau said, but the fight was there and we just kept working the game and the game turned.Phoenix had been in control, although never by much, until its fourth-quarter collapse.Knight scored the last five points of the half to put Phoenix up 52-47. He made a 3-pointer from the corner as the shot clock expired with 34 seconds left and sank two free throws with 10.6 seconds to play until halftime.Bledsoe scored all of the Suns points in a 9-1 third-quarter run. His driving reverse layup capped the spurt and put Phoenix ahead 69-58 with 5:01 left in the quarter. The Suns led 75-67 entering the fourth.TIP-INSTimberwolves: The Timberwolves missed 14 of their first 15 shots in the second quarter. ... 6-foot-5 guard Zach LaVine had a soaring dunk over 7-1 Alex Len. ...

"Im in a really good position for tomorrow," Scott said. https:///...ite-sox-nike-jerseys .Y. -- The Buffalo Sabres have recalled forward Kevin Porter and defenceman Chad Ruhwedel from the minors as part of a five-player roster shuffle made by the NHLs worst team. The Jacksonville Jaguars fired Gus Bradley on Sunday, ending one of the least successful coaching tenures in NFL history.Owner Shad Khan announced the decision following a 21-20 loss at Houston, in which the Jaguars (2-12) blew a nine-point lead in the fourth quarter. Khan considered the move in late October, following a debacle at Tennessee on national television, but opted to keep Bradley for seven more weeks. During that time, Jacksonville lost to backup quarterbacks Tom Savage (Houston), Paxton Lynch (Denver) and Nick Foles (Kansas City).Bradley went 14-48 in four seasons in Jacksonville, the worst winning percentage (.225) of any NFL coach with at least 60 games.The Jaguars were supposed to be considerably improved this season, time for Bradleys always-positive approach to pay off with a much-improved roster. Khan spent big in free agency for the second straight year and felt he had all the pieces in place for a playoff push. Even before the free-agent frenzy, Khan said a winning record was everybodys reasonable expectation at this point.Instead, the Jaguars have lost nine in a row. Its the longest, single-season losing streak in franchise history.I dont know, really, for anybody in this locker room how much more frustrated you can be, quarterback Blake Bortles said. Once again we had all the opportunities in the world, chances in the fourth quarter to score, and we just dont do it.Bradley flew home on the team charter. General manager Dave Caldwell will name an interim coach for the final two games Monday. Its likely to be offensive line coach Doug Marrone or defensive backs coach DeWayne Walker.I thanked Gus Bradley today for his commitment to the Jacksonville Jaguars over the past four seasons, Khan said in a statement. As anyone close to our team knows, Gus gave his staff and players literally everything he had. Our players competed for Gus and I know they have great respect for him, as do I.Gus also represented the Jaguars, the Jacksonville community and the NFL in nothing less than a first-class manner as our head coach. That counts for a lot. It is unfortunately evident that we must make a change. I thought it would be best to do it immediately after todays result so Gus can step away, relax and regroup with his family during the Christmas and holiday season.Khan added that he and Caldwell will be charged with exploring all options to hire the best head coach possible to llead what I feel is an extremely talented team and reward a very loyal and patient fan base in Jacksonville. Custom Los Angeles Dodgers Nike Jerseys. A former Seattle defensive coordinator who had no head coaching experience when Khan hired him in 2013, Bradley spent his first two years in rebuilding mode. Bradley and Caldwell overhauled a talent-starved roster, revamping it through the draft and then supplementing it in free agency. The Jaguars spent more than $350 million (nearly $150 million guaranteed) the last two years in free agency, bringing in an influx of starters who were supposed to make a difference.Instead, the Jaguars showed little improvement, at least in the win-loss column.Bortles was mostly a mess, his sloppy mechanics causing inaccuracy every week. It didnt help that receivers dropped passes, tight end Julius Thomas was unreliable and the offensive line was far from stout.Jacksonville made a huge jump defensively, becoming a top-10 unit thanks partly to the addition of defensive tackle Malik Jackson, defensive end Yannick Ngakoue and rookie cornerback Jalen Ramsey. But the defense lacked a consistent pass rush and failed to create turnovers. Couple those shortcomings with Bortles penchant for interceptions and fumbles, and its no surprise the Jaguars ranked last in the NFL in turnover margin.Bradley kept his team playing hard down the stretch, even after it secured a sixth consecutive losing season. The Jaguars became the fifth team in NFL history to post double-digit losses six straight years, joining Tampa Bay (1983-94), Detroit (2001-06), Oakland (2003-09) and Cleveland (2008-13).Although Bradley will be remembered for his indefensible record, slow starts in each of his four years and an inability to win at home were major stumbling blocks.Jacksonville went 5-25 in September and October under Bradley, digging huge holes and essentially falling out of playoff contention before Thanksgiving. And the Jags failed to find success at home, going 7-20 at EverBank Field. They are 0-6 there this season.Jacksonvilles home finale is Saturday against Tennessee (8-6). Although the Jaguars technically won a home game in London in October, they have never gone winless in Jacksonville in a season.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
