The Portland Trail Blazers were working to hold on to an 89-83 lead over the Minnesota Timberwolves Wednesday night when forward Jerami Grant worked his way into the paint for a well-defended fadeaway jump shot.

Sharpe finished with 33 points (12-23 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 6-7 FT), six rebounds and one assist over 36 minutes during Wednesday's 106-98 victory over the Timberwolves. Sharpe finally came out of his shell Wednesday after a sluggish start to the season.
