Jordan McLaughlin accumulated 13 points (4-5 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five assists, three steals and a rebound across 22 minutes in the Timberwolves’ 129-126 win over the Heat on Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact:

It was a solid outing for McLaughlin who hit the biggest shot of the night for his team. With Minnesota trailing 126-125, McLaughlin took it to the hole and hit a contested layup over Bam Adebayo with just under nine seconds to play to give the Wolves a lead they wouldn’t relinquish. The rookie has been impressive this season when given extra run, and in three games with at least 30 minutes, he's averaged 18.0 points, 9.3 assists, 3.0 boards and 1.3 swipes.
