What a sick sequence of buckets from Naz Reid in the 4Q vs Denver

- Pound dribble 3PM.
- Transition in and out finish.
- Inside euro finish.

I clipped together all of the possession where Denver threw two defenders at Ant

I thought Ant's decision making was great here, led to a lot of open shots especially down the stretch of the game

Huge win for the Wolves. With Gordon and Watson out, this was a game they needed to win.

Wolves now sit as the 4th seed just percentage points behind the 3rd seed

Gigantic minutes here to start the 4th quarter here for the Wolves. Jokic will be on the bench and the Wolves will have a chance to grow their 8-point lead

Wolves won the non-Jokic minutes by 11 in the first half

Biggest game of the season to this point for the Wolves this afternoon in Denver. Path to the three seed becomes much more clear with a win

Coming out of the All-Star break, Finch talked about some games counting double. This is definitely one of those

The Wolves have been the healthiest team in the NBA according to this graph from @automaticnba.bsky.social on X.

It's been one of the most disappointing aspect of this Wolves regular season, they have not done well enough to take advantage of their healthy lineup and still trail Denver and Houston

Ayo Dosunmu said the player he's gotten closest with on the team is Joe Ingles. Why?

The trash talk.

Anthony Edwards on Jaden McDaniels:

"I don't like to see him get into it at all... He's the X-factor of the team. He's my favorite player to watch... I didn't give a lot of people a lot to watch today cause I was a ball hoggin, but I'll give him back the ball next game."

The Wolves are 2nd-worst in AST% (55.8%) and last in AST (21.6 per game) over their L5 games.

Anthony Edwards is averaging just 3.6 AST (2nd-lowest of career) and 8.9 potential AST per 100 poss. this year (lowest of his career); he has the fewest POT AST among high-share handlers.

Jaden McDaniels on guarding Maxey compared to Drummond

Anthony Edwards on the motivation going up against guys like Tyrese Maxey and Cade Cunningham:

β€œIt’s fun many to know the league is in good hands”

Also, I'm not a fan of saying that they lost cause they were without Naz and Rudy when the Wolves have been one of the healthiest teams in the NBA. Gotta find a way to win games when you are missing guys

Same goes with the 3-point shooting discrepancy

The Wolves are gonna lose this one, pretty rough loss again at home

Yes they are missing Rudy and Naz, but Philly is without Embiid and Paul George and they played last night in New Orleans

Wolves defense has been rough all game, they've given up 94 points through 3 quarters.

They also have not found a successful when Ant is on the bench as they are playing Philly even when Ant is on the court and are -16 when he's off

Philly is dead last in 3rd quarter Net Rating this year at -18.1. Last on Offense, 29th on Defense.

It gets worse if you limit to just the last 15 games: 30th net (-31.1) and last in both offense and defense

2 reviews in the span of 30 seconds here at Target Center. Both were overturned

Jaden McDaniels gets the benefit of the "Jaden McDaniels" rule on a proximate foul
