Minnesota Timberwolves' Josh Okogie scores five points in Team World loss

Minnesota Timberwolves second-year wing Josh Okogie appeared in his second consecutive Rising Stars Challenge and didn't have quite as much success as he did during his rookie year.

Team World had a 10-point halftime lead but was outscored by a 44-24 margin in the third quarter and could never quite catch up in the final frame. Ultimately, they were outpaced by 30 points in the second half alone, leading to a 151-131 loss.

Last year, Okogie scored 13 points for Team World and had a memorable dunk. This year, Okogie had just five points off the bench in 16 minutes.
