Malik suspended 12 games for his off the court actions this offseason.
At least this happened in a lost season

However, 12 games seems a bit much when compared to past suspensions for players that committed comparable wrongdoings. Like kek said, at least this kind of a mishap is being dealt with during a lost season.
The bigger story for me is who gets the bulk of those minutes when Beasley is out. Anthony Edwards is already playing full starter minutes at this point so my hope is that Jaylen Nowell gets a big bump to his minutes total and starting status. Let's get a look at him playing next to better players. If he can keep making threes at a respectable rate and be opportunistic with his drives and in transition then he could firmly entrench himself in the rotation for the future.

I have a feeling Culver's ankle will suddenly be 100% better.

Rosas took over a 36 - 46 team and basically said it sucked... only to put the league's worst team on the court over the past two seasons. Getting through at least four years as a top NBA exec regardless of your performance seems like a breeze nowadays.
[Note: I'd be interested to know how much say the Wolves had in the timing of the suspension...]
