Hope everybody is having a great year. I am ready to participate on a nightly basis. Starting tonight. I have posted just a handful of times in recent years, but am a veteran of the site. Hope everybody is well.
Wolves - 0.5 (-120) 1 unit
Minnesota, 11th place in the West, is finally able to focus on basketball. The season has been drama filled from the start. The Wolves were 5-9 when Jimmy Butler was traded back in mid- November. They are now just one game under .500, and 5-3 since January 6th. What has impressed me about this team is the way they have competed against some of the Western Conference Elite:
Wins Already against
- Lakers (2)
- Sacramento
- Houston
- Portland
- OKC (2)
- San Antonio
- Utah
Young guard Josh Okogie looks like he might be the steal of the 2018 NBA draft. Selected with the 20th overall pick, Okogie is a lock-down defender who has the potential to be one of the best defenders in the league. He has promise offensively too, and he showed that on Tuesday night against the Suns in a 118-91 win in Phoenix (career-high 21 points in just 24 minutes, shooting 7-for-11 from the field, 4-for-7 from deep and a perfect 3-for-3 from the free-throw line). He also added five rebounds, two steals and two assists.
