I was going to skip this but Wiggins vs Wesley J is an intriguing match up which caught my interest. Jabari Brown is showing some good off the bounce game.

Yea, the first few weeks I though Wiggins was giving me major Wes vibes (not a good thing) but Wiggins is def better.

Clarkson= Real Deal
Black= Impressive
Brown= Dudes Built
RKelly= coming out of his shell

All the young talent signed through next year is playing well!

man outside of Martin and Wiggins (who is a stud) I feel like every other player (the ones healthy and playing) on the wolves wouldn't even get minutes on our team. Just awful

Payne looks decent through the first and second quarter. Dunno about the third. Their defense is awful though

Brown is playing well. Clarkson has been playing well too. Kelly's been great so far, I like it.

Wiggins' dunk right now was nasty... I'm still upset we weren't able to snag him.

Pretty much, Wiggins is roughly what wolves fans thought they were getting when we drafted Wesley.

All our rooks played well today. Even R. Kelly had a good game.

Good game to see who can ball out of the leftovers. But don't read too much into a good game against literally the worst team in the league. Kelly looks good today, probably invisible tomorrow if history has anything to say.

Still, someone had to win.

Kelly has actually looked like a decent NBA player recently. He's hitting shots, and occasionally dunking. Where was this at the start of the year?

From what I can tell he was coming off an injury and with BS likely playing out of position at the SF spot instead of PF. As he shown flashes when he played PF(stretch 4) last year under MDA.
