Minnesota Timberwolves

Record: 16-55

PG: Lorenzo Brown (3.6 PPG, 2.2 RPG, 2.6 APG)

SG: Zach LaVine (8.5 PPG, 2.6 RPG, 3.2 APG)

SF: Andrew Wiggins (16.0 PPG, 4.4 RPG, 1.8 APG)

PF: Adreian Payne (7.4 PPG, 6.2 RPG, 0.7 APG)

C: Gorgui Dieng (9.7 PPG, 8.5 RPG, 2.0 APG)

Key Reserves:

Chase Budinger: Budinger has found himself playing very well lately as the sixth man in the Wolves rotation. On Wednesday, he put up 22 points and also dunked all over not one, but TWO Laker defenders.

Sean Kilpatrick: Just a week ago, Kilpatrick was a D-League regular. After the Wolves signed him before their recent contest against the Knicks because he was close to the arena, Kilpatrick has stepped in and played solid minutes in the Wolves rotation. Once he starts to get more accustomed to the NBA and playing with his teammates, Kilpatrick could make some noise down the stretch for the Wolves.
