CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa -- Rookie Jabari Parker had 21 points and 11 rebounds, O.J. Mayo scored 19 points and the Milwaukee Bucks beat the Minnesota Timberwolves 105-98 on Friday night.

Giannis Antetokounmpo also had 19 points for Milwaukee (2-3) in a matchup between Andrew Wiggins and Parker, the first two picks in the recent NBA Draft.

Wiggins finished with 10 points and six rebounds, Gorgui Dieng led Minnesota with 16 points.

The Timberwolves (1-2) gave Ricky Rubio the night off, instead starting Zach LaVine at point guard.

Milwaukee's Zaza Pachulia strained his hamstring late in the first half and didn't return.
