I think we can do better than Matt Ryan. He doesn't do much else besides shoot 3s and he wasn't super proficient in college (only 36.3%) and for Iowa last year he was just 35.3%. There are better shooting specialists and there are a lot more better complete players.

Fair. I’m just saying someone like Ryan who can shoot is a need

Yeah, the summer league team doesn't have much outside shooting, but I think Wolves are fine with outside shooting. Sure, they could always add more, but I want complete players over shooting specialists. Heck, Garza is a bigger Matt Ryan but he can do a bit more. I'll run a search of summer league guys that are free agents and 24 or under and are shooting over 40% on good volume for you if want.

Wolves are going for layups and high percentage shots. This suits their personnel better than chucking shots from outside. And their success inside has opened up the perimeter for Brandon Williams. Love the energy in coming back.

If the Wolves front office trust B. Williams' outside shot, they need to think hard about giving him that open roster slot. We could use another creator off the dribble.

Wolves are really outshooting Atlanta by 15% margin-52% to 37%.

I love Leonard Miller-he isn't showboating like Minott. Miller has a nice soft shot and puts in layups when he could dunk. Minott goes for a highlight dunk and misses the shot. Ugh!

This in no way infers the future for Miller, but dang, I see an awful lot of similarities between him and a young KG. Effort, bounce, skill and unselfish. We've got a good one.

Minott switches onto their hot player, Martin. Martin easily crosses him up and he has to foul while trying to recover. Sigh.

Minott passes up 2 open 3s. Super disappointing summer league for him

Minott is getting torched

Minott can’t get the box out. So disappointed in him
