MVP
Jonny Flynn, Wolves
Flynn's eight points, 14 assists -- he reached his career high in assists (10) by halftime -- in 30 minutes off the bench trumps yet another 20/20 Kevin Love game.
BY THE NUMBERS
15 Timberwolves victories, the same number they won all last season.
16 Rookie Lazar Hayward's career-high points off the bench.
24:43 Anthony Randolph's playing time -- more minutes combined than he played for the Knicks the past two months -- on a night when he delivered a 19-point, 10-rebound double-double in his fourth game for the Wolves.
9 20-20 games from Love this season.
