He's been ok this season! Definitely backup-guard level. Improvement!

He went over the screen that time, but Towns failed to cut Curry off so that LaVine could catch back up.

Man Wiggins is sooo springy, he gets so high. If he every gets aggressive enough and the refs respect him he can get more FTA then Harden.

It takes far more than that to be as good at drawing FTA as Harden.

This is the truth. The most important thing Wiggins can learn right now is how to get to the line. Some of it is ref reaction, but he doesn't do a very good job at recognizing where the contact is coming from yet. Most players usually don't until they have a couple years under their belt.

The Wolves refuse to shoot 3s, so this is pretty much an insurmountable lead.

Do they have any quality 3pt shooters? I honestly don't know for sure, but the reputations I remember point to no.

He is just one of those people who is so quick and has such a good first and hop step that fouling will be the only way to stop him, he will actually earn his trips to the line. Plus that spin move is soooo good.

We could def only lose this game by 10-15 if Curry sits the rest of the way.

I'm cynical enough to actually try it. I mean, how much could his percentage really go up if you just don't cover him deep? It's already 45%, what does it really matter if it climbs to 50% or even 55%?

He does, but he's not very good at it right now. I can see him eventually being Bosh-like and take 2-3 a game with a decent %.

Well, Bosh is much better at 3s this year, but 28-30 year old Bosh.

Muhammad's looking like the best player in this game except for Steph and maybe Draymond tbh

It's crazy how good Towns already is considering his age too, Wolves still have some holes but fans should be really excited about the future
