Re: Wolves SL Game 4 v Rockets

Yes...Shannon had a toe injury.

Actually think they just shut him down to get a look at some other players

Re: Daishen Nix

I'm hoping we play 10 this year and reduce our starters minutes by 2-4/game. Nix on the floor with NAW or Dillingham or Shannon or Ingles is fine because you have 4 ball handlers all of whom can initiate the offense...2 of whom would be better initiating the offense. Nix is thick and strong and seem...

Re: SL Game 3 Wolves vs. Sixers

Pretty sure we weren't worried about winning tonight.

Shannon gets 5 shots up and isn't given the ball in transition.

Re: Game Report - Wolves Summer League Game 1

TSJ played with that intensity every game at Illinois (that he was allowed to play). He can get cold..but that's when he gets to the rim and to the line.

He's always a bull on defense

Re: SL Game 1 Wolves vs. Pelicans GDT

He’s just so much older than everyone in college. I understand why he fell to an extent but great start from here at SL I'll never understand why age is such a big deal if you are already really good and developed physically. He's one of the best two-way players in college basketball with an NBA bo...

Re: SL Game 1 Wolves vs. Pelicans GDT

I don't understand how the NBA analysts really slept on TSJ after seeing a great defender develop into a great scorer who gets fouled.

Re: Wolves Draft and Free Agency Grades

I'm pretty thrilled with our draft and FA moves considering the apron and how close we are to contending. If someone had told me we would lose Anderson and jMac and bring in Joe Ingles, Terrence Shannon, and Dillingham going into the off-season I would have been thrilled. We lost some defensive flex...

Re: Terrence Shannon

Shannon probably has the clearer path to minutes and early production than Dillingham. I'm a lifelong Illini fan so my assessments are often biased, that being said having watched Shannon at Tech I was thrilled when the Illini got him and much more thrilled to find out what he could do on offense. H...
