Quick Notes

  • Zach LaVine is now the NBA leader in minutes per game (37.9), while Andrew Wiggins (36.8) and Karl-Anthony Towns (35.4) are shortly behind at sixth and 14th, respectively.
  • The same trio all rank in the Top 30 in the NBA in points per game. Towns is 20th (22.3), Wiggins is 22nd (22.0) and LaVine is 28th (20.8).
  • Ricky Rubio has begun to look like his old self in the past few games, which has led to Minnesota’s apparent turnaround. In the last three games, Rubio is averaging 8.6 points, 9.7 assists and 2.3 steals while hitting 12 of 12 free throw attempts. In fact, Rubio hasn’t missed just one free throw since November 19th (36-for-37).
