Summary

On today’s show, Dane is joined by Kyle Theige from SKORNorth to discuss the state of the very-injured Minnesota Timberwolves, who enter their fifth game of a five-game road trip in Oklahoma City on Friday night. The theme of this episode is not only what has been playing out as the Wolves have taken on more and more injuries but also what else Chris Finch and crew can get to while trying to replace the available minutes that are piling up due to injury. Topics include... — Why the Wolves are underdogs against the Thunder — The Wolves’ lack of 3-point shooting hurting at least the perception of the Wolves’ defense — What we saw from “Point Ant” against the Clippers, while D’Angelo Russell and Jordan McLaughlin had to miss the game — Who is in the rotation after all these injuries? Matt Ryan? Josh Minott? Sign up today for a 14-day free trial of Aura’s digital security at Aura.com/Dane Use Code Dane25 to get 25% off- https://trylgc.com/Dane #ad Learn more about your ad choices.
