Summary

Britt Robson of The Athletic joins today's episode to discuss the current state of the Minnesota Timberwolves.

We dig into the first real crossroads Rosas' Wolves have hit in the first season where cultivating a sustainable winner is actually about winning a little bit now. We talk lots about Karl-Anthony Towns -- and his defensive ascension, along with his leadership role on this roster.
