MINNEAPOLIS (AP) Latrell Sprewell's driving layup with 57 seconds remaining gave the Minnesota Timberwolves an 80-79 victory over the Detroit Pistons in a matchup Friday night of two of the league's hottest teams.

Garnett scored 16 of his 22 points in the second half. Detroit's defense held the Wolves ``Big Three'' of Garnett, Sprewell and Sam Cassell to 20-for-60 shooting. Sprewell finished with 17 points and Cassell had just nine.

Former Wolf Chauncey Billups had 18 points for Detroit, which lost its second consecutive game after winning 13 in a row.
