Jeff Teague ties season-high 27 points, Timberwolves take down Rockets

Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Jeff Teague scored 27 points (11-of-16 field goals, 4-of-4 free throws) with 3 rebounds, 12 assists, 1 steal, 1 3-pointer, and 1 turnover in 37.8 minutes of a 121-111 win over the Houston Rockets on Wednesday.

What It Means:

The points tied Teague's season-high that he set in the first game of the season. His nagging left foot injury appears to be a thing of the past, as the veteran recorded back-to-back double-doubles heading into the All-Star break, with averages of 23.0 points, 3.5 boards, 11.0 dimes, 1.0 steals, and 1.0 triples over those two games. Minnesota's next game is in New York against the Knicks on February 22.

Teague finished with a season-high 50.6 FanDuel points in the win. He's averaging 29.7 FanDuel points through 34 games overall.
