EDGE Analysis
Okogie played 14 first-half minutes before exiting, finishing with zero points (0-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 0-2 FT), two rebounds and one steal. In spite of Okogie's absence, the Timberwolves didn't replace him in the rotation in the second half, as Finch gave minutes to only two other reserves (Jaden McDaniels and Malik Beasley).
