Contested 2-Pt Field Goal Attempts
Contested 3-Pt Field Goal Attempts
Deflections
Charges Drawn
Loose Balls Recovered
Karl-Anthony Towns led all Las Vegas summer league players in Contested 2-Pt field goal attempts and he was 3rd in loose balls recovered. That's a very good sign, as I believe these are the types of plays that translate from one setting to another and do make a difference.
The only other Timberwolf to make the top 3 in any category was Lorenzo Brown, who was 2nd in deflections.
The team that won the hustle stats battle had a 60% win rate (obviously we didn't do enough of it as a team, but at least KAT did well).
I agree that is very good news about Towns.
