League Pass Game of the Day: Timberwolves at Kings (10 ET)

Five things you need to know before two Western Conference contenders meet in NBA League Pass tonight:

1. DeRozan’s debut: DeMar DeRozan will make his Kings debut tonight in Sacramento after the team acquired him via a sign-and-trade from the Bulls this summer.

2. Clutch Kings: DeRozan, a six-time All-Star, posted 24.0 ppg, 4.3 rpg and 5.3 apg for Chicago last season and finished second to Steph Curry in voting for the Kia Clutch Player of the Year. A year earlier, Sacramento’s star guard De’Aaron Fox won the award.

3. Wolves Run It Back: Last spring, the Timberwolves won their first playoff series since 2004 and fell just three games short of reaching their first NBA Finals. Now they return with the same core – centered around Anthony Edwards – in the hope of winning a title.

4. Ant-Man enters 5th grade: At age 23, Anthony Edwards is entering his fifth season after posting a second consecutive All-Star campaign in which he averaged a career-high in points (25.9 points per game), field goal percentage ( 46.1) and assists (5.1 points per game).

5. Dillingham Watch: In addition to Edwards, the Wolves may have another top scorer in rookie Rob Dillingham, a 19-year-old guard from Kentucky who Minnesota acquired in exchange for the No. 8 overall pick in this year’s draft.
