Iowa Wolves News Release
El Segundo, Calif. - After leading by as many as 13 points in the second half, the Iowa Wolves (0-5) dropped their fifth straight game to begin the season, losing 119-118 in the waning moments Monday night to the South Bay Lakers (1-3) at the UCLA Health Training Center.
Leading 118-116 with under 20.0 seconds to play, Iowa forced an errant shot from South Bay guard Scott Machado but were unable to secure the rebound. A second-chance shot from distance by two-way guard Alex Caruso put the Lakers up for good as the Wolves were unable to score on the team's next and final possession.
As a team, Iowa put up their best offense numbers of the season, including a season-high 118 points. The Wolves also set a new season-high in field goal percentage (48.9%), three-point percentage (43.3%) and free throw percentage (82.6%).
Two-way guard Jared Terrell paced the Wolves offensively, scoring a team-high 25 points in his second-ever NBA G League game. The Rhode Island University product added seven rebounds, four assists and two steals.
Canyon Barry, son of former NBA great Rick Barry, earned his second double-double of the season, pouring in 23 points on 8-of-13 shooting while securing a team-high 10 rebounds. He also tallied a new season-high four three-pointers while shooting 66.7% from deep.
Darius Johnson-Odom recorded his fifth straight game of at least 20 or more points, finishing with 24 points and four assists.
Hakim Warrick chipped in with a season-high of 16 points to go along with eight rebounds off the bench for Iowa. Warrick didn't miss a single shot during the game, finishing 6-of-6 from the field and a perfect 4-of-4 from the free throw line.
Caruso posted a game-high 26 points, including the go-ahead three-point shot that put South Bay up with 3.3 seconds remaining in the contest. Los Angeles Lakers assignee Svi Mykhailiuk added 21 points in the Lakers' win.
