John Collins is back, Clarkson is out, Markkanen seems to be a game time decision. For the Wolves Kyle and Monte are on the injury report, Monte seems to be on a minute restriction. Rudy wore his jersey but did not shoot around, he is 99% out.

Update: Lauri Markkanen is in. Only Jazz player out is Clarkson.

Tough one with Lauri back. Need to be serious and hope Naz and Jaden don't get in foul trouble early. Go Wolves !

Yeah, kind of think we’re the underdogs tonight. But we can still take it.

Jazz shot the lights out from deep. They went 5-7 we went 2-6. Fix the turnovers and have the 3s regress to the mean and we will be fine. The key is to turn up the defensive intensity when Garza goes out. Ant also needs to wake up.

Naz comes out, Garza in, Jazz on a run. Garza is a problem. Second half has to be Miller Time!

A lot of people here thinks Garza deserves to have rotational minutes. Lmao

Ant needs to step it up, but Naz is the best player on the floor tonight!

He keeps passing up open 3s and paint 2s. He has a couple of bad turnovers instead of shots. His defense is so bad guys like Kyle have to leave open 3 point shooters to cover for him. He also keeps running into Timberwolves essentially setting moving screens for the Jazz. At some point enough is going to be enough.

the rebounding has been mostly long ones that Wolves haven't got to, rather than size being a huge problem, other than Kessler

Wolves could go smallish I think, Lauri and Collins are tough covers but Kessler has no offensive game to exploit a small player on him

Mike has also been very quiet tonight. We need more from our starting backcourt. Thankfully, JMAC, Monte, and NAW are picking up some slack. If we wanna win we gotta gang rebound and wake Mike and Ant up.

If his hand is too hot do we have a bucket of ice so he can cool it off?

Horrible injury luck here lately.
When luck shuts the door skill comes in through the window.
