First-round pick Kris Dunn led the Minnesota Timberwolves in scoring once again, racking up 21 points in an 82-80 loss to the Toronto Raptors in NBA Summer League action.

The No. 5 overall pick just a few weeks ago, Dunn also led the Wolves with nine rebounds and four assists.

The Wolves fell behind 19-13 in the first quarter, before outscoring the Raptors 22-14 in the second to take a 35-33 lead into halftime. The Wolves extended their lead in the third, outscoring the Raptors by six, before second-year shooting guard Norman Powell helped Toronto pull away in the fourth quarter.

Powell led the Raptors in scoring with 29 points on the night.

Starting five: The Wolves once again rolled out Tyus Jones and Kris Dunn in the backcourt, alongside Adreian Payne, Toure Murray and Jarrid Famous in the frontcourt. Murray was the only new addition, after Xavier Silas started at forward on Friday.
