No Gobert again today. Does anyone know what is going on with him besides just simply got back spasms? Is he getting better? Ready to return? Been practicing FTs?

Assuming Conley will get his rest today, are we going with Dilly and Hyland at PG tonight?

Rudy get some rest which is not a bad thing. Last year, with his new kids born, he was not 100% for the run. Hope he is this year.
Not sure Mike will rest, he want to play and always play well on B2B. But he should not play more than 20 min. Go Wolves!

I missed the Hyland acquisition. Wasn't he a first rd pick a few years ago? If so this is a solid get with little risk. We need the help at PG anyway.

Can anybody comment on Hyland? Good-bad?

Rob Dillingham is absolutely unplayable.

Dillingham sized SG. No real ability to run a team. Allergic to defense. Streaky shooter that can get hot from 3. Or shoot you out of games...

Was a Tim Connelly draft pick in Denver and apparently he still has a bit of a man crush on him. There was a lot of talk of us trading for him when TC first got here.

I think people even suggested a Naz Reid for Bones trade at the time...

Jaden having 16 first half points is sweet. That last possession which lead to the timeout is why we miss Rudy. Clark with some nice steals, TSJ got to the line and got a good look after that. Dilly too much gambling on defense, not enough drive and kick on offense. D3V will find his rhythm but it’s tough with Ant in score mode instead of set the table mode.

Was a pretty entertaining 2nd quarter. I didn't see Edwards or anyone touch bridges. Good to see Edwards keep his cool.

He looked like a Clarkson type the first three years in DEN but just went down hill the last two years with Clippers. Maybe hangout with Harden a little too much.

Shoot goes in. Have to as defense is not very solid. Without Rudy. But we play well on offense and everybody involved. Go Wolves!

Feels like Wolves should be up 15 pts.

I love the way that Julius Randle finds his teammates on drives.

Is it me or does TJ have a little bit of Vando in him as far as crashing the boards?!
