4 more games until we pass the trade deadline. My money is still on Randle getting moved, although I worry about his groin...

ANT has been added to the questionable list with an illness, along with Conley and Shannon. Randle is out with his groin soreness. It would be cool if Shannon were able to get some minutes, and it will be cool that NAZ will get the start. The kids should get a lot of run going against the Wizards. I'm not sure what I have more anticipation for -- Dilly on offense or Clark on defense?!?

Man, another bug going through the locker room!?

While I love the young guys, at some point it's not so cute anymore if we are missing a critical mass of our vets and they are over-stretched. We do not want to be the ones that the Wizards end their losing streak against!

Or could "illness" really mean just a rest day for a guy who hasn't missed a game all season.

I've peeked in on the Wizards last two games and they were getting obliterated in both games. Embarrassing would be an understatement if the Wolves drop this one.

Dillingham deserves 20 minutes this game, keep growing his confidence

It sounds like no Ant now

Yeah, good point. I think if Mommy and Daddy can both play, than there will perhaps be enough adult supervision for the kids out there. We definitely need to start being more strategic with Ant so he doesn't fizzle out in the playoffs again, but I think it's still a stretch we get as far as last season.

Randle and Ant out. Mmmm, that's a lot of points gone missing. Dillingham, Garza, and may be even TJ Shannon to the rescue!

Mike, NAW, Jaden, NAZ and Rudy get the start. We should see some pretty good ball movement with our two most "sticky finger" players out!

And we'll see how deep Finch is willing to go into the kiddy bin. Dilly, Clark and Luka are pretty set. Will it be Minott or Shannon that get some token 9th man minutes?

A very Rudy-centric offense here.

Ok, Dillingham in for a struggling Conley. Instant bucket.
