Once again, I generally agree with your grades with some slight variations.

I’d give Ant an A+. You really can’t do better than Ant did tonight. I think he scored nearly all of the Wolves first 12 points and then he came up clutch in overtime to take his team across the finish line. And on top of that his defense was outstanding.

I’d give Jaden an A-. Yes, he committed some bad fouls the first half, but what he did in the 2nd half offensively was critical to the Wolves win tonight. And of course, he was also terrific defensively.

I’d give Conley and NAW both a B. They both hit big shots and were terrific defensively. I could even see giving them both a B+

I give Shake and incomplete. He just didn’t play enough and when he played he wasn’t noticeable. ‘
Don’t disagree with anything you really said the reason why I didn’t give Ant an A+ is because he played not sustainable basketball at the end of the 4th Q and was a reason they didn’t win in regulation. I think there is still another level what is awesome to say and I’m keeping A+ special.

I thought Jaden was fantastic in the 2nd half but his first half was really rough.

Overall though these are all super nitpicks. The wolves need to keep healthy but man what a fun start to the season.

Also this is why the wolves traded for Rudy

Kudos to McDaniels for keeping his fouls under control. His ability to play 45 minutes was CRITICAL. I know Tatum had a solid game on paper, but Jaden was absolutely terrific on him. Thanks to guys like NAW, Jaden, and Ant, we never have to send two guys at a perimeter player. That is so huge and it gives our bigs a huge advantage in protecting the paint.

After watching the replay I’m downgrading Finch from an A- to a B+ based solely on his decision to have NAW take the foul shot on the take foul that hurt Naz Reid’s eye.
