The D'Angelo Russell Game: Big 3 Shares ...

BLUE WIRE
About this episode

On today’s show, we get into the Wolves third consecutive win — a win fueled by Anthony Edwards, D’Angelo Russell and Karl-Anthony Towns passing the torch quarter to quarter until Oklahoma City was buried. We also discuss the rare occurrence of a Wolves team that appears to have chemistry, and how that might change the way we look at the trade deadline. Topics today include:

— The Big 3 combining for 70 points, sharing the load quarter by quarter

— How a shooting uptick here from DLo could have a similar impact to the times we’ve seen KAT have extended stretches of good defense

— A Wolves team with chemistry, and how that might change the way the trade deadline is pursued

— Jaylen Nowell’s contract being guaranteed for the year, and the future contract options the Wolves have on him in terms of his upcoming free agency
