Scores 10 points in blowout loss
Newell closed Friday's 142-115 loss to the Pistons with 10 points (4-5 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one block in 17 minutes.
The Scoop: Newell has scored in double figures in each of his last three appearances, during which he has missed only four of his 17 shots from the field. The 20-year-old forward has played at least 12 minutes in all three of those outings due to Kristaps Porzingis (illness) being unavailable, and Newell is making a case to stick in the rotation whenever Porzingis is out. Newell is averaging 4.9 points, 1.6 rebounds and 0.4 assists across 9.0 minutes per contest in 16 regular-season games thus far.
