The Wolves outscored the Pistons 26-11 in the third quarter on Wednesday night.
That’s the good news.
The bad news is that Minnesota scored just 17 first-half points compared to Detroit’s 36 and even with that third-quarter run, the Wolves weren’t able to win in the first round of the Las Vegas Summer League tournament.
Keita Bates-Diop had another solid game, finishing with 16 points, nine rebounds and two blocks. He did, however, have seven turnovers. Jonathan Stark added 10 points and seven rebounds. Josh Okogie had seven points, but was solid defensively, finishing with five rebounds, four blocks and two steals.
