Most Productive Timberwolves Player
Wayne Ellington produced an estimated 0.2 wins and 0.256 Est.WP48 off the bench with 11 points, 42% shooting efficiency, five rebounds and three steals. Ellington's shitty numbers were productive in this game because Dwyane Wade continued to struggle with his injured foot.

Least Productive Timberwolves Player
Michael Beasley produced an estimated -0.2 wins and -0.347 Est.WP48 from four points, 33% shooting efficiency, three rebounds, two turnovers and three fouls.
Point Guard Problem
Ricky Rubio produced an estimated 0.1 wins and 0.161 Est.WP48 from 12 points and 12 assists. Mario Chalmers played like a star with 0.289 Est.WP48 from nine points and five assists, but he was limited to just by foul trouble to just 14.6 minutes. Norris Cole struggled against another rookie PG for the second game in a row. Cole only produced -0.006 Est.WP48 as Rubio outrebounded him 6-1.
And that's the story by the numbers: Howard and Battier's struggles, Wade's injury and rookie PGs are the reasons the HEAT played a close game with the Timberwolves.
