Gorgui Dieng Continues Good Spell As Starter
5 years agoMinnesota Timberwolves center Gorgui Dieng played only 19 minutes as a starter in Saturday's blowout loss to Houston, but it was enough for him to deliver another solid line. He had a whopping four treys on his way to 14 points, eight rebounds, three assists, and one steal, shooting 5-for-7 overall from the field. Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) keeps getting the questionable tag, but it remains unclear when he will return to action. He was apparently also feeling ill ahead of Saturday's matchup. Dieng has done a good job in his absence, averaging close to a double-double and providing some defensive stats as well.
