Suns' Mikal Bridges fills box score in victory
Phoenix Suns small forward Mikal Bridges scored 12 points (4-of-12 field goals, 2-of-7 3-pointers, 2-of-2 free throws) with 5 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals, 3 blocks, and 1 turnover in 40.3 minutes of a 107-99 win over the Minnesota Timberwolves on Saturday.
The playing time and blocks are both season-highs for the rookie, who saw an uptick in work with Trevor Ariza traded and Josh Jackson struggling off the bench. Kelly Oubre's arrival could cut into Bridge's minutes though. The Suns visit the New York Knicks on Monday as they begin a five-game road trip.
Bridges scored 35.0 FanDuel points in the victory. He's averaging 16.4 FanDuel points through 30 games.
