The upside is that this game may have gotten culver over 40% from the field. Good job rookie.

Toronto drafts:

2015 - Norman Powell, 2nd round, Pick 46
2016 - Pascal Siakam, 1st round, Pick 27 and Fred Van Fleet, undrafted FA
2017 - OG Anunbody, 1st round, Pick 23

Those three years yielded more productive players with cheap picks than the Wolves have gotten in the entirety of their 30 year history.

Yeah its impressive. They were teetering on the edge and Masai shot some steroids into that franchise. Also the case for not tanking.

We could have drafted those players but they wouldn't be half the players they are today with our inability to develop players within this franchise.

It's not like those four players came out of nowhere. VanVleet was a career 38.6% 3-point shooter in college. Powell averaged 16.4 points on 45.6% FG shooting his last season in college. Siakam averaged 20.3 points and 11.6 rebounds his last college season as as sophomore. Anunoby was slotted as a high lottery pick by most draft experts until his knee injury. Draft good players and your player development will look good. Other than Billups, have the Wolves ever drafted a player who played poorly here, left the team and ended up a really good NBA player?

Powell was considered one of the worst players the last couple of years.

Masai and nurse deserve alot if credit for developing players. The players are well coached and are put in roles to make best use of them.

While we often look disorganized and the players are inconsistent. I dont think we are an untalented team, but we are a low iq and poorly coached team.
