Darryn Peterson turned in his best game as a pro, handling Minnesota's elite perimeter defense and paint protection well.

“I think there’s a variety of ways to attack. I thought he did a great job handling some really good perimeter defenders tonight. I mean, Jaden McDaniels is elite. I think when Jaylen Clark comes in, his ball pressure always changes the game. And then you’ve got guys like Ayo and Kuminga on the perimeter as well with their physicality and Gobert is behind them… Did a good job of mixing in his three ball off the dribble and then had to make a lot of plays in sort of that mid-range area because of their coverage.”
