I wouldn't mind seeing what McDaniels could do on Luka, but maybe he's not ready.
They're not sending him to the G-League....
I like the idea of McDaniels starting for Okogie in theory, but you just know the officials will call every damn little ticky tack foul if a rookie starts the game guarding Doncic. I kinda get why they are going with Okogie for tonight at least.

Naz Reid is averaging 14.9 PPG, 6.2 RPG, 1.5 APG, and 1.6 BPG with a .626 TS% in 26.7 MPG as a starter through 12 games thus far. You could easily make a case that he's not only a starter-level player, but a good one at that.

Love that decision from A1 to pass out of the paint to an open D-Lo instead of shooting a tough, contested runner. Decision-making is a weakness of his, but not on that possession. Russell buries the three and Edwards gets the assist. Good basketball.

When does all the complaining start about how Doncic whines for calls? Not unlike Kat or any another player in this league

He's looked a lot better than some of our recent, and not so recent highly drafted players!

Naz Reid gets zero benefit of the doubt from officials on defense. It's ridiculous.

Porzingis has 13 points in seven minutes of playing time... Great.

He's also easily swatted away a couple of Naz Reid forays to the hoop that were going in against shorter opponents over the last week or so. I wonder what Maverick records he'll break tonight.

One day the wolves won't give up 30 in the first quarter.
