Welp. Now this team is really doomed. Pack it up. Season over. ;)

Maybe we can get Beverly piped into the speakers all game?

Well, I guess it's just going to rip through the league and everyone will take their lumps. Let's just get it out of the way. Obviously these guys aren't very sick based on how they played last night!

I'm curious what the NBA policy is. I know all the Wolves players at vaccinated so they just need back to back days of negative tests to play again but after that happens when do they get tested again. In the NFL if you test positive you don't need to be tested for 90 days after. (Its why some packers fans are happy Rodgers got covid when he did)

So the Wolves technically can sign 5 players on a hardship waiver. I'm thinking KG, Michael Beasley, Corey Brewer, Johnny Flynn and Wes Johnson. Thoughts?

Not only that, but the Wolves are now required to make three hardship signings under the new rules. Sachin Gupta better make some calls. I have some ideas if he wants an advisor!

There a Red Headed Jester out of New Brighton Mn who hits the same amount of 3pt percentage as Josh Okogie at 20% I can stand in the corner with the best of them.

Hardship Signing Targets:

- Brian Bowen II
- Isaiah Miller
- Chris Silva

These three are who I would guess get signed as they are currently members of the Iowa Wolves and have spent some time with the main team as recent as training camp. I don't think any of these three are NBA-caliber players, at least right now.


- Justin Anderson
- Cheick Diallo
- Melvin Frazier Jr.
- Harry Giles III
- Rondae Hollis-Jefferson
- Ersan ?lyasova
- Mason Jones
- Luke Kornet
- Anthony Lamb
- Dedric Lawson
- Greg Monroe
- Malik Newman
- Daniel Oturu
- Micah Potter

These are former players and prospects that aren't signed with any NBA organizations that I think are worthy of a hardship signing. The bolded are who I would prefer to get a look at.

Shams:

The Los Angeles Lakers are signing guard Mason Jones to a two-way contract from their G League affiliate South Bay Lakers, sources tell TheAthletic Stadium.

Welp. Never mind then. Jones is now unavailable.
