In 23 minutes, Canadian Wiggins, who plays for the Minnesota
Timberwolves, showed glimpses of someone who might play in the
regular All-Star game in his native Toronto next season. Six of
his eight baskets came on dunks as he earned the MVP award.
Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert of France added 18 points while
protecting the rim in the exhibition game with 11 rebounds and
three blocked shots.
Chicago Bulls rookie forward Nikola Mirotic (Montenegro) and
Brooklyn Nets first-year swingman Bojan Bogdanovic (Croatia)
scored 16 points apiece, combining for seven of the World team's
eight three-pointers.
