Luke Kennard out with hamstring issue…he played Sunday in a meaningless game.

He’s been shooting pretty good the last handful of games averaging almost 17ppg on 45% from 3.

Either way their best sniper is out. Helps immensely

Definitely would’ve heard or seen something yesterday morning if there was either of these

I want to watch the actual game. Wish League Pass had a feature where you can go back and watch any past game. I'd put that on tonight just to get hyped and see the energy.

That injury likely inserts Amir Coffey into the rotation.

Clippers still have lot of good shooters but yeah no Kennard is a good news for Wolves. He is a pretty good 3 pt shooter

It's been a long time since I have been able to wake up in the morning with the excitement of our Wolves in a playoff game. I now remember what it's like to get really nervous before a game!

My key talking points for tonight's game:

1. 3-point Shooting
2. Foul Trouble
3. Can KAT keep his cool?
4.) How does Ant respond in his first playoff game?
5. Will it be "good" Russell or "bad" Russell?

I just saw a tweet of who the officials are tonight and apparently the NBA is doing everything possible to get the Clippers into the playoffs. They can't afford not to have the L.A. market represented. ($$$$$$$$)

I wasn't even thinking of that. Yeah you guys are getting a terrible whistle for sure ha!

I think LAC without PG13 and Kawhi is an easier series for Memphis, but you guys would be more fun. You know Ant and Ja are going to hit some crazy dunks the entire series.

Agreed on the key points. Think Russell performance and KAT emotions are the biggest factors.

Saw Ed Bleeping Malloy is the ref so I think fouls are already a problem for us before the game starts.

They might want LA for the market (even though it's like thinking Nets draw the same market as Knicks which isn't the case), but league really needs a MN-Memphis series. That series (assuming it's not bad time or network) would get casual viewers hooked and generate new....plus Clips-Suns rematch is really a better LA storyline.

Watched NBA Today to see their coverage. 70 percent of the show was about the Lakers. My God, I don't even think the wolves were brought up.

Lol. Not a shock. I watched a little yesterday, NBA central I think. “Where will Russell Westbrook play next year???”

I was thinking today how Minneapolis the city is much more of a basketball town than it is a hockey town. It isn’t close. Minneapolis doesn’t give 2 craps about hockey. Which is weird since we’re the “state of hockey” and it doesn’t exist in our largest city at all.

Hope the crowd makes a huge difference. DLo asked for it, so he better do his part

If KAT gets into foul trouble in the first I'll spew.
