  • Timberwolves, with Anthony Edwards ill, flop against Washington


    Their lead didn’t last, not after the Wolves finished off the first quarter with a 9-0 run of their own, led by the energy — and playmaking — provided by new supersubs Rob Dillingham and Jaylen Clark.

    That brought them within 27-26 at quarter’s end before …

    The Wizards countered by punching back, building back a quick 38-31 fueled by more three-pointers. They led 50-43 midway through the second quarter before the Wolves, with Ingles on the floor, answered back to pull within 52-50 with less than 2 ½ minutes left before halftime.

    When the Wolves took a very brief 57-56 lead with 56 seconds before halftime, the Wizards’ Bilal Coulibaly drew two free throws and made both with 7.7 seconds left for a 58-57 halftime lead.



    In a disappointing turn of events, the Minnesota Timberwolves fell short against the Washington Wizards as rookie sensation Anthony Edwards was sidelined due to illness. Despite putting up a valiant effort, the Timberwolves were unable to secure a victory, ultimately succumbing to a 115-107 defeat.

    The absence of Edwards, who has been a key contributor for the Timberwolves this season, was sorely felt as the team struggled to find their rhythm on both ends of the court. Without his scoring prowess and energy on the floor, the Timberwolves were unable to keep pace with the Wizards, who took advantage of their depleted roster.

    While it was a tough loss for the Timberwolves, they will need to regroup and bounce back quickly as they look to make a push for the playoffs. With Edwards expected to return to action soon, the team will be hoping to get back on track and continue their pursuit of a postseason berth.

    Despite this setback, the Timberwolves remain a team on the rise, with a promising young core led by Edwards. Fans can expect to see more exciting performances from this talented squad as they look to make their mark in the competitive Western Conference.

  • Winter Storm Enzo was a frosty flop for UF students


    As Winter Storm Enzo passed over North Florida late Tuesday night, Vanessa Hervie set out from Gainesville on a last-minute road trip in hopes of witnessing a rare occurrence in the Sunshine State: snowfall. Hervie, a 21-year-old UF chemistry junior, and nine of her friends trekked 30 miles north to Fort White, where it had been forecasted to snow.

    But according to Hervie, all Enzo left behind was “a little bit of ice and crunchiness.”

    “It was like somebody sprinkled their snow cone around,” Hervie said.

    Enzo had blanketed parts of the Florida Panhandle in up to two inches of snow throughout Tuesday and Wednesday. In Tallahassee — the home of UF’s bitter rival, the Florida State Seminoles — students shared videos to social media depicting miniature snowmen, snowball fights and students sledding through snow-filled streets. 

    About 32 miles south of Fort White in Gainesville, UF closed campus and canceled classes in anticipation of the storm. The National Weather Service predicted a brief snowfall around 6 a.m Wednesday. Students expressed mixed feelings on the anonymous messaging app Yik Yak — some planned to rise early for the rare event, while others said they would sleep right through it.

    The storm brought temperatures in the 30s, stints of freezing rain and wind gusts up to 26 mph to Gainesville early Wednesday morning — but to many Gators’ disappointment, not snow. As sunrise approached, the heavy overnight precipitation began to sputter out just as temperatures dropped to freezing.

    “There was nothing there,” said Kira Tuper, a 19-year-old UF exploratory freshman who woke up at 6 a.m. in hopes of seeing snow.

    UF reopened campus by 12:30 p.m. and students like Fatima Khan, a 21-year-old political science junior, had to trudge to class in 36-degree weather, with a wind chill of 29 degrees.

    “I don’t want to go,” Khan said, pointing to her shivering hands. “I wasn’t ready for this.”

    The National Weather Service issued freeze watches from Tuesday morning to Wednesday afternoon, bringing the total freeze advisories for Alachua County to 18 for January with over a week left in the month. 

    The area hasn’t seen so many January freeze warnings since Florida’s 2010 cold stun event. Daily temperatures throughout the month have also been an average of six degrees colder per day compared to Gainesville’s normal.

    The unusually cold weather culminated with Enzo, when air temperature briefly dipped below freezing point between 8 and 9 a.m. Wednesday morning. 

    During that brief period, air temperature hit a low of just under 31 degrees, one degree below freezing, according to National Weather Service reports. 

    However, wind chill throughout the storm made the weather feel much colder for Gainesville residents, with “feels like” temperatures dipping to a low of 21 degrees that morning and remaining in the 20s throughout the day Wednesday. 

    The National Weather Service forecasts that temperatures will hover between the low 30s and high 50s for the rest of the week, with scattered rain storms through Thursday.

    “It’s not a normal thing that Florida is cold like that,” said AJ Andrianirina, an 18-year-old UF computer science freshman originally from Madagascar. “I was expecting to have some warmer weather here.”

    Winter Storm Enzo swept through the University of Florida campus, causing havoc and disruption for students. Despite initial forecasts predicting a significant snowfall, the storm turned out to be a frosty flop, leaving students disappointed and underwhelmed.

    Many students had eagerly anticipated the arrival of Winter Storm Enzo, hoping for a rare snow day and a chance to play in the winter wonderland. However, the storm brought only a light dusting of snow and icy conditions, making it difficult for students to navigate the campus safely.

    In the end, Winter Storm Enzo was more of a nuisance than a winter wonderland for UF students. Classes were not canceled, and students were left to trudge through the slush and ice to get to their lectures and exams.

    While Winter Storm Enzo may not have lived up to expectations, students are hopeful that future snowstorms will bring more significant snowfall and a true winter experience. Until then, they will have to make do with the frosty flop that was Winter Storm Enzo.
