Jaylen Nowell scored 26 points and the Timberwolves held the Bucks to 27.9% shooting as they continued their perfect start in Las Vegas at the NBA Summer League with a 91-64 win over Milwaukee.
Nowell, who was drafted in the second round of the 2019 NBA Draft, shot 11-for-22 from the field to go along with six rebounds, three assists and two steals for the Timberwolves (3-0). Jaden McDaniels added 17 points — on 7-for-12 shooting — five rebounds, three assists and two steals.
"I wanted to make sure that I could lead this team both on the defensive end and the offensive end, starting with defense, because you know I think that's what has been winning us games," Nowell said in an on-the-court interview for NBA TV after the game.
