Timberwolves 118 [win] 103 Cavaliers

★Gorgui Dieng|22 points, 13 rebounds, 6 assists, 4 blocks

With the team's record sluggish and both stars out of action due to injuries, Gorgui Dieng, the most senior player in the Timberwolves' current lineup, jumped out to save the team. After being pulled back to the starting lineup, the team had four double-tens in 10 games, and the team finally stabilized and won four of the past six games.

According to statistics, after Dieng returned to the starting lineup, the Timberwolves' defensive advanced data rose from 25th to 3rd in the league. In addition to defense, he can also contribute in scoring. Not only did he rank first on the team in points, rebounds, and blocks today, but he also ranked second only to starting point guard Shabazz Napier in assists. He helped the team stabilize their position after the Cavaliers played a 32-6 super scoring surge to tie the score. Scored two three-pointers in five minutes to widen the gap again.

Dieng was the 21st overall pick of the Timberwolves in 2013, but after his new four-year, $64 million contract took effect in the 2017-18 season, he was moved from the starter to the bench, and his playing time was cut in half, making him a high-paid, low-paid player. One of the symbols. The recent resurrection has made fans start to think about the possibility of starting him with Karl Anthony-Towns. Maybe he will be an important stop for the Timberwolves after their highs and lows this season.
