4 on Jaden...we're gonna need more from NAW now.
And NAW steps up...nice finish to the third quarter for him. Such consistent effort...does he ever take a play off?
It's one reason I almost don't want him to be a starter. I like having a guy that can just go pedal-to-the metal for a 100% of his minutes. If he starts playing 30+ minutes regularly with all these injuries, I think it may detract from his play.

Completely agree...more important. I think Finchie agrees.

McDaniels is getting frustrated out there.

That JMac/Reid pick and roll chemistry goes back to their G-League days together in Iowa. Love it!

Really fun to watch! Not a great shooting night for Naz, but still a nice double double plus 4 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks.

This such a culture game.
I still don’t know if the Gobert trade was the right trade for us. But I can say the additions of veterans like him and Bite Bite show how far this team culture has come in a game like this. Easily could be let down game but we finally have a winning culture and I love it.
And yes I’m sure Im gonna jinx this with 5 mins left lol

Very true. What I like is that it seems like Ant has been dialed in the whole game. He can get bored in these kinds of games and half-ass it early.

Collin Sexton makes DLo look like Gary Payton on defense...he's a disgrace.

If Jaylen Clark ever puts a Wolves jersey on I don't think I'll recognize him.

Yeah, him and George are fine as bench scorers on a decent team, but you really don't want them both in your backcourt down the stretch in the 4th quarter. And they have Clarkson too (not playing tonight), who is also at his best as a bench scoring guard. They have a bit of role redundancy there!
