Kings lead 48-44 at the half in Minny. Ugly basketball by both teams. Fox leads with 14 points. Lots of turnovers. Lots of missed shots. – 9:10 PM

On a brighter note, the Kings are outrebounding the Timberwolves 29-14 with a 13-3 advantage in offensive rebounds. The shots aren’t falling and the turnovers have been atrocious, but they’re still winning because they are defending and rebounding. – 9:02 PM

5 pts, 5 reb and a blk for Deni Avdija already in 10 min.
This move right here shows the offensive potential he is just barely scratching the surface of. This is unusual for 6-foot-9. pic.twitter.com/gDlxTyhEkE – 7:45 PM
