For an idea of just how impressive Wolves big men Karl-Anthony Towns and Gorgui Dieng were Saturday against Chicago, consider the fourth quarter.
Strange, perhaps, because they each scored just four points in the final 12 minutes. But ask Wolves interim coach Sam Mitchell, and he’ll tell you that the way the two played over the first three quarters allowed Andrew Wiggins to explode in the fourth.
“When you’re a coach and see the other team’s four and five have 20 points each, you can’t just lock in on the guy you normally lock in on,” Mitchell said.
