Updates on former Wolves

D'Lo through 3 quarters tonight. 35 points on 13-17 FG, 5-7 3s, 4 rebounds, 9 assists, 1 steal, and 3 blocks. Lakers up by 31 on Detroit so he's probably done. Yeah I know Pistons suck, but that is a freaking incredible game.

A “Good DLo” sighting!

If only they didn’t make the typical “Bad DLo” appearances more disappointing…

Statistically speaking he's having a good Season. I know because I have him on a fantasy team and he's ranked top 50 in the NBA.

Sure, now he decides to show up against trash teams...

I hope he returns to the NBA one day

Beasley killed the Knicks tonight. Was fun to watch. Always thought he's a great piece for a good team, he just needed to get the proper pay and role. He's not a star but he's a role player. Sniper specialist who shouldn't be relied on to carry. Likle he would be perfect in our Shake Milton role but a bit bigger as far as taking shots.

Dane Moore was making fun of Beasley a bit today. For all the shots he makes he doesn’t exactly play strong D. Still glad to see former wolves shine when not playing against us. When playing against us **** JO for making 3/3 from deep. Seriously if he did that 5 game in a row he would still be a Timberwolf.

The Lakers are annihilating the Pelicans with Lebron going ballistic, but two former Wolves are having great games too. D'Lo and Prince.

Jaylen Nowell had a nice scoring outburst a few nights ago. Looks like Grizz fans are having some of the same discussions we had about him: flash in the pan or diamond in the rough? Glad to see him stick with the Grizz.

Not a great but a good. I appreciated him on our team very much.

A good guy but I will forever associate him with the senseless travels and we drafted him just ahead of Gobert.

If I'm thinking of the right draft we could have had Freak and Gobert and drafted Bazz and Gorgui instead. I actually post on another message board with a guy who was calling for us to draft those two. Man what a genius he was then.

Giannis Antentokounmpo is probably my biggest Draft miss. The league he played in was truly something special, as a middle-schooler, I played against better talent than some of the players in the league, I didn't believe in it at all. :lol:

Steph Curry is mine. We took Johnny Flynn instead.

If anyone has league pass and watches Roco that past year or two, is he washed or does he still have game?

He's still a very good defender and rebounder. He's never really been a guy who can create offense for himself or others, and that has definitely become more pronounced.

He can still hit a 3, but he's not really a volume bench scorer. Just a guy who can come in, play defense and at least draw a defender.

I was thinking about the buy out market, and Roco seemed like a guy who might be there. His salary is high enough that if Philly makes a move they toss him in, but a team that receives him might waive him or seek a discount. If we did move Kyle for a PG, could Roco fill some of that role?
