DIENG EARNS ROOKIE HONOR: On Tuesday, Timberwolves center Gorgui Dieng was named the NBA's Western Conference Rookie of the Month for games played in March. Dieng, the 21st overall pick in the 2013 NBA Draft, ranked 2nd among all rookies in rebounding (8.3 rpg) and 5th in the West in scoring (8.6 ppg) while shooting 61.3% from the floor in 14 March contests. He began a string of six consecutive starts with a 12-point, 11-rebound, five-block effort in the Mar. 16 win over Sacramento, becoming the first player since Dwight Howard in 2004 to notch a double-double with 4+ blocks in his first NBA start. He collected five point/rebound double-doubles in total, highlighted by registering season highs of 22 points, 21 rebounds and four assists Mar. 20 at Houston, and was Minnesota's top rebounder on six occasions. Dieng is the fifth rookie in franchise history to earn the monthly award, joining Stephon Marbury (January 1997), Randy Foye (December 2006), Kevin Love (March 2009) and Ricky Rubio (January 2012).

* * * WOLF TRACKS: Minnesota ended 2012-13 with a 31-51 record, its highest victory total since finishing 32-50 in 2006-07; this year's winning percentage (.378) fell short of the .394 (26-40) mark the Wolves compiled a season ago… Minnesota's season was highlighted by two wins apiece vs. San Antonio, Oklahoma City and Denver, the Western Conference's top three teams record-wise… Minnesota has now missed the postseason in nine straight seasons, after advancing to the playoffs every year from 1996-97 through 2003-04 (eight)… The current absence is the longest active postseason drought; Sacramento (seven), Toronto (five) and Washington (five) are next on that list… The Wolves began the season 16-15 (through Jan. 8), then endured a 7-28 stretch (Jan. 9-Mar. 21) before splitting their final 16 contests… The 107-101 home win over Detroit on Apr. 6 marked Rick Adelman's 1000th victory as an NBA head coach… Minnesota closed with four wins in its final seven away from Target Center, including a season-high three-game road winning streak (Mar. 22-26-Apr. 3)… The wins at Detroit (105-82 on Mar. 26) and Phoenix (117-86 on Mar. 22) marked the first time in club history that the Wolves have registered 20-point victories in consecutive road games… The final 31-point spread at Phoenix equals the second-largest road win in franchise history (and ties the 10th-largest overall); they won by 35 at Philadelphia (119-84) on Dec. 8, 2004… Prior to the three-game road winning streak, Minnesota had suffered through an 11-week stretch that saw them drop 17 of 18 road games; the Feb. 11 victory at Cleveland bisected droughts of eight (Jan. 9-Feb. 10) and nine games (Feb. 22-Mar. 21)… Memphis pulled away for a 99-86 win on Mar. 30 at Target Center… Minnesota took a 67-65 lead into the fourth period before being outscored 34-19 by the Grizzlies; they dropped 13 games when leading after three (second behind Cleveland's 14) and lost 18 games after building leads of 10+ points… Houston spotted the Wolves a 20-point, 3rd-quarter cushion before rallying to win 108-100 on Mar. 15; it's the biggest lead Minnesota let slip away this year and the 13th time in franchise history they've lost after building a lead of 20+ points…

SCHEDULE NOTES: Minnesota enjoyed a 5-5 final month, after compiling a 1-26 record over its previous three Aprils… The Apr. 17 triumph at San Antonio marked the Wolves' first victory in a season finale in five years (110-101 OT vs. Milwaukee, Apr. 16, 2008), and also halted a 16-game losing streak at the AT&T Center that dated to January 2004… Minnesota faced four groupings of four-games-in-five-nights this season, including three in the final five weeks (Mar. 9-13, Mar. 26-30, Apr. 9-13)… The Mar. 30 game vs. Memphis completed Minnesota's second seven-games-in-10-nights run in March (Mar. 9-18, Mar. 21-30); they went 8-14 on the tail end of back-to-back sets this season, after going 5-15 in those situations a year ago… The Wolves finished 20-21 for their best home record since going 20-21 in 2006-07… Minnesota drew an SRO 20,340 vs. Houston on Dec. 26, the third-largest crowd in Target Center history…
