What happened: Minnesota sits first in fewest points allowed at 74, followed by Kansas City at 103, Jacksonville at 104, Cincinnati at 122 and Seattle at 125. Minnesota closed a 16-10 final against Indianapolis, with Will Reichard scoring a game-high 10 points and Spencer Shrader adding 4.

Why it matters: The 29-point gap between 74 and 103 separates Minnesota from the next defense. Holding Indianapolis to 10 points in the final kept that cushion intact.

By the numbers: Fewest allowed: 74 — Minnesota; 103 — Kansas City; 104 — Jacksonville; 122 — Cincinnati; 125 — Seattle. Scoring: 10 PTS — Will Reichard, game high; 4 PTS — Spencer Shrader.

What to watch: Minnesota defends the mark in its next outing while Kansas City and Jacksonville chase the gap.
