Was Finch on the broadcast? Did he said anything noteworthy?

Yes he was on. Did really say anything just a lot of platitudes

It's just 1 half of SL but for this level Bowen seems like a nice solid filler player nothing wow about him but it can be nice to have guys like that.

Wolves have been pretty aggressive on defense.

He echoed the player development angle and relying on the team's stars -- Towns and Russell -- for their success this upcoming season. He said he only got to coach Beasley for four games so to get him back is like a free agent signing (eye roll). He noted that Wright has a path to carving out a role on the team and noted McLaughlin as the example. That was mainly it.

Yeah, he was the best player on the floor in the first half. Good to see.

I agree with the comments on Knight. Getting him signed to a two-way looks like a steal. He's a player - athletic, strong, skilled, good length and great motor.

Nowell started slow, but got it going in the second quarter. He made a terrific one-in-one defensive play to close out the first half.

McDaniels has been OK, but a bit disappointing.

Wright looks ok. Solid 2-way signing.

Really like the defensive intensity of that starting unit.

I know this is kind of the cliche thing about nearly every 2nd year player....but I swear Jaden McDaniels looks taller!

Monster - I agree with you on Bowen. I love the aggressive defense the entire team played in the first half.

I was reading that he IS taller. That's great but kind of hard to fill out while you are still growing.
