Posts huge steal total in win

With Davis Bertans (knee) sitting out, Neto, Troy Brown (16 minutes) and Rui Hachimura (38 minutes) were the main players who benefited from boosts in playing time. Neto, who had averaged 22.6 minutes per game over the previous five games, used the extra run to churn out one of his better lines of the season. The steal total was a bit of an outlier, but Neto has shown an ability to be a decent streamer in that category when handed extended minutes. He's averaging 1.2 steals in 19.6 minutes per game on the campaign.
