Wiggins out for the passing of his grandmother.

And I was looking forward to him and the wolves crushing the wizards. Now, I'm not that confident. Towns need to be elite in this game and Teague needs to be agressive. Two or three of culver, Roco, okogie and Layman needs to get hot from the outside.

The Wizards aren't a good team -- like, at all. They're 2-7 for a reason. I don't think the Wolves are going to need many things to go abnormally right for them tonight.

It's Karl-Anthony's birthday and he typically plays well on these occasions. Jeff Teague is rightfully back in the starting lineup. Minnesota wins by double digits at home without Andrew Wiggins.

D'Antoni said Capela is out tomorrow, House 50/50. Westbrook to sit tomorrow.

Minnesota might steal a win tomorrow if Wiggins is back and still in attack mode. That would make up for the loss to Memphis in my book.

Nodding my head in agreement...

Your right. Wizards are a bad team and we beat them with towns out. Dieng play a great game that night and Teague was great. With wig out, we need one or two wings to step up on offense to make me feel more confident. Teague hopefully is fully recovered. I don't want us to lose to teams we shouldn't lose to if we are seriously pushing for the playoffs. Every win vs bad teams matter.

Treveon Graham once again draws the tough defensive assignment as he matches up with Bradley Beal. Love to see it. He quietly does a lot of the dirty work for this team.

Wizards have NOBODY that can slow Karl-Anthony Towns down. He could easily go for 40 tonight if he wanted to.

I guess we will get to see what our team would be like if we took some peoples' suggestions and dumped Wiggins.
