The good thing about Edwards is he can get to the rim every time. The bad thing, he cannot finish to save his life. Hope it's something he can work on. If he can get a good touch, that's a problem bur right now, its a mess.

Ant getting to rim easily but can’t finish. Needs to learn to get fouls 9(or maybe just get calls) — start watching Dwade tape ASAP

he should. He should be a ball hog and raping the net on both ends.

I had to wait like two quarters there before he slammed one. uninvolved too often.

Yeah, looks rough right now. Hard to believe he won’t figure that out though. Get contact drills going in summer.

If he went over the rim more he'd be fine.

Jaden Mcdaniels getting big time closing minutes. Crazy.

Team much better with Edwards Culver back sitting on the bench. Just don't like them playing together at this time.

This team could get things done if more of them could shoot.

Telling you, we need some key pieces in a trade. Get those and we are a decent team (.500 range)

I’ll say this, I am not missing Ricky tonight. Feels like he doesn’t have a great fit for need on the team, and I’m a big fan of his.

I am really not a fan of super-small ball, it never seems to go well for the Wolves.

First Two PG moment of the game. Jim Peterson points out.

Can we make him a team coach already?

The decision making by Saunders is absolutely asinine....

This team has shown some sustained spurts of decent defense without having quality bigs. That's a positive sign too.

This lineup seems bad to close a game. We need stops not shots?

I’ve said it before, I’m out on Saunders.

I’d play

Dlo
Beasley
Okogie
McDaniels
Naz
