(DETROIT) – Andrew Wiggins scored 33 points, and Minnesota spoiled Blake Griffin's return Monday night, beating the Detroit Pistons 120-114. The Timberwolves shot 8 of 10 from beyond the arc in the first quarter to take a 15 point lead, and they held Detroit at bay after that. Griffin played for the first time this season, coming back from hamstring and knee issues. Derrick Rose also returned to the Detroit lineup from a strained hamstring, but both he and Griffin played limited minutes. Griffin scored 19 points but Rose added just six. Luke Kennard led Detroit with 25 points, and Snell scored 16. Andre Drummond had 11 points and 12 rebounds, but he went just 4 of 12 from the field.
