Jaylen Clark's standout defense and other observations from Timberwolves summer league

LAS VEGAS – Timberwolves guard Jaylen Clark said he made a bet with one of his assistant coaches that he'd get five steals in Sunday's game against the Pacers.

Clark did one better, as he ended up with six steals in the Wolves' 105-94 victory over Indiana.

"I felt like I had more than six," Clark said.

The 2023 second-round pick out of UCLA is participating in his first games of any kind since tearing his Achilles in his final season with the Bruins. On Friday, Clark felt like he was getting his legs back underneath him and just enjoying the moment playing against competition again.
