Timberwolves' Zach LaVine: Leads team with 29 in losing effort

LaVine scored 29 points (10-20 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and added six assists and two rebounds in 39 minutes during Thursday's 124-110 loss to the Raptors.

Analysis:

LaVine has stepped up in his third season, increasing his scoring average by nearly 50 percent, while also increasing his efficiency from the field and from the free throw line and cutting down on his turnovers. While managers will appreciate his six assists Thursday, he is not usually that effective as a passer - this was only the third time in the past month that he had more than three assists in a game.
