I like how into the game Towns seems to be, we need more guys like that

One more foul Towns, C'mon stuff those stats!!!

Turned on the game halfway through the 4th quarter, and I feel like there has been a foul called literally every possession.

1-0. And the Lakers might as well get used to losing to us now.

Towns is going to be a work in progress this year, but I like what I see. He has it between the ears.

And Lavine showed out. Might be hard not to start him at the 2 opening night.

Agree on your points. And you can bet Zach will be better by the time the regular season gets here. That's what you can count on with that gym rat.

Zach's 3 in the 4th quarter to put us ahead gave us the momentum to win. And we had Payne to close it out!

I think the Lakers have a decent summer league team. Nice win for the Wolves. Towns and Tyus got their feet wet. It'll be fun to see how each progresses. Towns clearly "has all the tools". Tyus has a long way to go. I will be VERY surprised if our PG depth chart going into the season if Rubio / Tyus / LaVine...

If Brown continues to progress offensively I think he may earn some backup minutes.

The gap between Tyus and LoBrow was....huge. Hopefully he gets more comfortable and we see better play from him as things progress.

I like brown and tyus. But brown is best as a 3rd string pg and tyus isn't ready yet from a physical standpoint. If we are able to unload AB and open up a roster spot. I might be interested in using our trade exception and get dj agustine from okc as our backup pg for next season. He makes 3m and is an expiring and okc is looking to unload some salary to resign kanter.

C'mon guys. This was Jones first 15 minutes in a summer league game. It means next to nothing. Much more happy about LoBro's play then I am disappointed with Jones's. Please don't start making judgments on Jones after this small glimpse.
