Josh Minott scored 18 points on 6-for-16 shooting but the Timberwolves lost 93-80 to Sacramento in the NBA summer league Thursday night in Las Vegas. D.J. Carton chipped in nine points and dished nine assists in the loss.
The Wolves, 1-3 in Vegas, will finish summer action in the consolation. They will play at 2:30 p.m. on Saturday against Charlotte (0-4).
Carton's efforts came off the bench. That's because Brandon Williams, averaging 21.3 points per game for the Wolves in three summer league games, started at guard but sat after halftime with a right knee contusion according to the team's social media accounts.
