According to Chad Hartman and Doogie at KFAN, the Wolves won the tiebreaker with Memphis for the NBA draft lottery.
From Tom Ziller/Fanhouse:
The result will have no real bearing on the lottery proceedings on May
20 — Minnesota and Memphis, for example, will split the balls
available for the #3 and #4 teams. If it’s an odd number, the coin flip
winner will take the extra one. But the coin flip does have
serious import with regards to draft order. A Minnesota coin flip win
means Minnesota picks ahead of Memphis, unless Memphis vaults into the
Top 3 by way of lottery win. It also means the lowest Minnesota could
pick would be #6, while Memphis could fall as low as #7.

A franchise that has had none in the draft lottery won Friday’s blind
draw with Memphis, which means the Wolves get slotted for the third
overall pick in the June draft and the Grizzlies the fourth pick,
provided the lottery goes according to the odds.

Also from Zgoda:
By winning it, the Wolves also get a 13.8 percent chance at the No. 1 overall pick rather than a 13.7 percent chance.
