Topics include: - How good and how bad the defense has been this season with KAT and DLo both on the floor + What is likely to sustain from those minutes big picture - How the Timberwolves got a defensive lift Friday, particularly from Jarred Vanderbilt + Why Vanderbilt’s best position is seeming like power forward next to KAT or Naz Reid - Chris Finch’s coaching style + His willingness to forego rotations to play the players who are playing well that night Learn more about your ad choices.
