Despite big nights from Andrew Wiggins and Karl-Anthony Towns, the Wolves weren’t able to take down the Celtics in Boston on Wednesday night as they fell 115-102.
Andrew Wiggins finished with a season-high 31 points while shooting 10-for-18 from the field and 2-for-5 from the 3-point line. With his fifth point of the game, Wiggins became the seventh-youngest to score 7,000 points.
After scoring just four points in the first half, Karl-Anthony Towns turned it up in the second and finished with 28 points, 12 rebounds and seven assists.
But the 18-point first-half deficit combined with the fact the Wolves were without Jeff Teague, Robert Covington and Derrick Rose (all ankle injuries) proved to be too much to overcome.
