Phoenix Suns vs. Minnesota Timberwolves preview

The outcome of this game won't have huge implications on the Suns' Summer League future.

Their defeat to the Sacramento Kings ruled them out of playoff contention, making this a consolation game. Despite a promising start in Vegas with a 103-84 win over the Wizards, the Suns lost their next two games against the Atlanta Hawks and the Sacramento Kings, ending their qualification hopes.

Although she didn't play all three games, Ryan Dun has been the Suns' most consistent performer. The sophomore scored 18 points against the Kings and had 17 against the Wizards, averaging 17.5 points per game.

Meanwhile, the Timberwolves have earned convincing victories in Vegas. They beat the Pelicans 98-91 in their first game, followed by wins against the Nuggets and the Detroit Pistons. Their latest victory against the Eastern team was their biggest of the summer, winning by a 16-point margin.

Terrence Shannon Jr. has been the leading man for the Timberwolves. The forward has featured in all three games and is averaging 22.6 points per game. He has recorded 20+ points in all of the games and has forged a great partnership with his fellow sophomore Rob Dillingham.
