Timberwolves guard Jeff Teague steps up his game with Andrew Wiggins out again

It has been a rough season for Jeff Teague, to say the least. The former All-Star has had multiple injuries that have caused him to miss 23 games this season.

But he picked a good time to have perhaps his best game of the year on Thursday.

Teague turned in a vintage performance, and the Wolves needed every bit of it in their 121-111 victory over the Rockets.

Teague had 27 points on 11 of 16 shooting to go along with 12 assists. The 27 points tied Teague’s highest scoring output of the season. He outplayed his counterpart Chris Paul, who went four of 13 for 16 points.
