This squad is playing with a nasty edge right now.

Knight has fallen off since game 1, he needs to be tougher on the glass.

All the wolves needed was McDaniels back on the court and voila up 20 again.

Is that 2 straight games of holding opponents under 30% fg%?

And that's game.

McDaniels: 17/5/3/2 steals
Nowell: 26/6/3/2 steals

Next game is vs. the Sixers on Sunday. Tyrese Maxey and Paul Reed are names to watch from them

McDaniels being the focus is really nice to see. Oh, and Nowell is really hitting shots and looks better than the competition in SL his confidence in his game looked great, poised and accurate. Let's go Wolves!

Fun game, Knight underperformed, but everyone else was excellent. Last time it was Chicago underperforming in spite of us, this time it was us shutting down the Bucks.

The announcers were giving our defense credit for the poor shooting of the Bucks.

Ok it’s encouraging that the new owner is a new Jaden fan since he recently just followed the klutch sports guys on instagram.

The implication being we are having serious discussions about Simmons and we don’t want to include McDaniels?

Doesn’t Klutch represent Ant?

I’m not sure there is anything to read into beyond that.
