Probably a game that sitting ant before the all star break would be a wise move

Ants have six legs… I would say if five are good then let him play

VanVleet is questionable for tonight’s game, and not in that Twitter starting line up, after he left Monday’s game with a knee-to-knee collision in New Orleans. However, their guards could be the 6-5 Gary Trent Jr and 6-7 OG Anunoby. I don’t remember Trent being much of a passer, but I think a lot of our guards will struggle with their size. They have a roster full of 6-7 to 6-8 guys.

I guess I haven’t followed the Raptors very closely except to know Siakim is having a good year. So they had won eight in a row before coming here on a two game losing streak? What’s up with that? Have VanVleet and Siakim’s improvements this year really started leading to wins in mid-January?

I'm hoping Beasley and Prince come out and give me a reason to believe that keeping them at the trade deadline was not a mistake.

It's an interesting matchup tonight in that the Raptors play 6 guys (with 4 of them starting) who could be classified as traditionally sized PFs (6'7"-6'9" and 225-235 lbs) and the Wolves have 0 guys that fit that definition on their roster.

Siri says Ant weighs 225lb. He is 6’7.

Agreed. I wouldn’t have an issue if he sits out rookie/sophomore game if needed.

If Ant’s ankle felt better why not? He badly needs a rest, but he didn’t play at all in the second half or OT. I think we are probably the team who most needs the ASB. Not only are we the second youngest, but half the team is banged up.

Siri has an old weight for Ant.

He’s going to struggle stopping Russell while he sits at the end of the bench.

Dlo defense making Trent Jr looking like HOF. While himself already 0-2.
