Luka played the 8th most team minutes last night.
How he got those 8 points:
4-7 (57%) from inside the arc
0-0 from three
0-0 from the FT line
The Wolves (31-25) are currently the #7 seed for the playoffs, which means they'd be in the Play-in Tournament.
They are just 1 game out of the #6 seed (Clippers, 31-23).

Absolutely love it! Especially over Hartenstein.
I watched the game last night as it was on tnt. Was good to see him play well as I know he had a bit of a rough patch a few games prior. Still puzzles me how he doesn’t get more minutes. I know his defense is bad but his hustle and instant offense should make up for it.

I caught the last 6 minutes of this game.
Wolves trailed by 16 but went on a 20-4 run to get it to OT missed a good shot to win it in reg.
Ant was dinged and did not play much of 4th.
It was young guys like Terrance Shannon and Dillingham that helped McDaniel ect grab this win.
They doubled SGA the whole qtr and the others couldn't get it done. Luka did not play in that stretch.

Iowa wrestling was in town for a meet against the gophers. A few of the wrestlers went to watch Garza play the night before their meet.
At the half, the Suns have the lead at 51-49. Really hope to see Luka in the 2nd half. Game on ESPN.
Minny wins 116-98. Luka was 0-1 from the field in every bit of the minute and a half of playing time he got. BTW Gobert did not play.
Kevin Durant, Devin Booker & Bradley Beal are the Suns' "big 3." It's surprising to me that they are just 28-33 with the 11th best record in the Western Conference. Heck, they are 4 games out from from even making the Play-in Tournament.

Yesterday Minnesota (43-32) beat Detroit (42-33) in Minneapolis, 123-104.
Luka played just 2 minutes, was 1-1 inside the arc (he didn't attempt a three) and 2-2 from the FT line for 4 points, 1 assist.
At this moment (in the video below), Luka had yet to enter the game. Detroit had to pick the guy who shot FTs and they chose Luka. He hit them both.
The crowd, as you can see, loved it.

he did score 2 points in 0 seconds (clock was stopped, he came in, shot the 2 FTs and then took a seat)
Naz Reid got fouled, but he got ejected. Somebody had to shoot the FTs!
Watch both videos for context of how Luka made his way to the FT line.
I guess, technically, he scored 2 points in 5 seconds of playing time.
