Updates on former Wolves

Didn’t realize that Prince was having a good year. He’s shooting 40% from 3 on volume. We had an option on him for this year for $8m. We waived him and signed Shake/TBJ for that money (9m total). In hindsight, I think we could have used Prince’s shooting more than those two, but we also needed bodies.

And for the record, TBJ was a good signing. I just don’t think his shooting is as reliable on volume (Prince with more than twice the attempts from 3) as Prince.

TP played a lot of minutes in MIN out of position at PF. He had a good shooting nights and he was willing to sacrifice his body to take charges, but he fouled almost in every defensive possession, was mostly a straight line driver and not a good passer. He was a good locker room presence, but I prefer Milton/TBJ for 8 mil.

He may be shooting well but most Lakers fans are not happy with how much he plays, because he is still doing inexplicably stupid **** on the court that a vet his age should not be doing.

A very good month. Shooting 46% on 3s in December, when he started the month at 32% for the season.

Jarred Vanderbilt 48 mil/4yrs. 1.5ppg, 4.2rpg, 28%FG, 50%FT...

I know he was injured for the most part of this season, but what happened to him?

Cannot help but wonder what they will chant on his first night as a hawk if they make a trade sending him to Atlanta?

Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reported Friday that Vanderbilt, who left Thursday’s loss to the Celtics due to a foot injury, is expected to miss several weeks, but he’ll undergo further evaluation. Vanderbilt missed the start of the season due to left heel bursitis, but he's been a key piece of the rotation since returning to action in early December, playing at least 20 minutes in 15 of his last 21 appearances (six starts).

D'Lo with another huge game. 30 points (9-19) and 6 3s 6-6 from the line and 5 assists.

Josh Okogie was good tonight for the Suns. He had 8 points on 3 of 3 shooting, and got some extra possessions. When he came in the Suns were down 7, and within a couple minutes he got it to tied. He had a non spectacular second half, but for a deep bench defense guy 100% shooting on 2 of 2 from deep is pretty good.

Might be in the running for worst humans ever employed by the Timberwolves

This gave me Kirk Cousin warm feelings! From DLo!

Nemanja Bjelica retired from basketball. He had some good moments with the TWolves and I'm happy to have got to see him play live for our team in that time. He bounced around the NBA but cut his teeth with us!
