He does the little things, the whole team played better when he was in. It's gotta be nice to see some solid screens set, not the sorry ass effort the rest of the t-wolve big men put forth. There were 3 or 4 baskets started with a BCARD screen.
He literally did nothing while he was in the game.
No, he set good screens, moved the ball around, blocked a shot (that he didn't get credit for) fought for a lose ball and forced a jump ball that we won, didn't give up any o-boards.
This is true, but he was also late on 2 rotations, missed up a pick/Roll situation with Gomes and simply did not help much on pentration defense.
he has some hustle, and he does have energy. But he does not have the offensive skill to justify minutes. To play a guy like Cardinal you need scorers around him. Maybe we see more of him? Personally I doubt it.
