Last night we watched the best performance in the NBA Playoffs so far with Minnesota Timberwolves guard Ayo Dosunmu scoring 43 points and he was 5-5 from the 3 in their victory over the Denver Nuggets 112-96. My heart goes out to superstar Anthony Edwards and Donte DiVincenzo of the Timberwolves who were both injured early in the game, but I was very impressed with the entire Minnesota team for coming together and figuring out how to secure the win without their two premier starters.
Jaden McDaniels, deadpan delivery, on what worked for the Timberwolves offensively.
Jaden: Go at Jokic, Jamal, all the bad defenders. Tim Hardaway, Cam Johnson, Aaron Gordon, their whole team.”
Q: They’re all bad defenders?
Jaden: “Yeah, they’re all bad defenders.”
