GAME RECAP

Impact player

Omri Casspi, Kings

Teammate Rudy Gay scored two points more, but the Kings created a mismatch by playing Casspi at power forward against Wolves starter Adreian Payne and he responded with a career-high 31 points.

By the Numbers

19.9 Percent chance the Wolves have for getting the draft's No. 1 pick if they remain where they are, with the NBA's second-worst mark.

13-for-31 Wolves veteran Kevin Martin's shooting on a 37-point night. He was 3-for-11 on three pointers.
