Jaden McDaniels has been a bright spot for the Minnesota Timberwolves, helping them adjust to the Rudy Gobert trade and figure out a new plan after the Karl Anthony-Towns injury.
His defense has been one of the most promising aspects of his game, but McDaniels’ offensive progression has made major strides as well. Jaden McDaniels defense, paired with the newfound offensive freedom, is shaping up to be a perfect pairing next to Anthony Edwards both now and whenever KAT comes back.

Do you think Jaden McDaniels is a future All-Star?
First. Team.
Imagine if mcdaniels and Vanderbilt were on the same teamπ
Jaden propaganda LIFEβS GOOD
I can see him becoming like Jerami Grant, a borderline all-star who is also a great 2-way player.
He was frustrating me as a bulls fan yesterday.
Edwardβs just got injured
His offense profile will be similar to jerami grant
I canβt believe dudes can go from role player potential to 6th man starter/all star I mean Kobe dropped 8ppg first season Jokic was running like a fat man…oh wait heβs still fat
When Minne drafted him I said this draft class was insane for them. I predicted that he would be a KD-esque type of player. Not being his volume but his scoring ability. a 6'9-7'0 off-dribble scorer but with a defensive mind on top of it
i thought mcdaniels and vanderbilt were the same guy lol, great video
Ant and JMac is the wolves' bootleg version of MJ and Pippen lol
They have KD? we got Jaden McDaniels
Please do a video on josh okogies defence
Bro i will literally k*ll myself if he makes a bucket next game
accidentally found your channel but i'm impressed how great your videos
Unironically moving kat wouldn't be a bad option imo the teams looking better without him he's realistically not a 4 and he's the worst of all the big name bigs tbh
He better make an all defensive team or imma be pissed
I'm not a Wolves fan, but I tell people about this guy all the time; now, the casuals will know more about him. He's low-key, one of my favorite players

Jaden is the goat
Players like Jalen McDaniels, Jared Vanderbilt, PG, and Kawhi are my favorite prototypes. 6β7-6β9, can guard 1-5, play 1-5, score off the dribble, and basically do everything any team could need then to do.
God I hope
Easy answer. No he is not a star in the making. Dickridin crazy rn
Once he develops more strength he will blossom into a more consistent potentially 18ppg scorer. I could see hom averagong 21 on a different team, but with kat and ant 18 is very good for a third option.
He definitely needs to be on an all defensive team, he is practically a one man defense at times for the wolves and heβs so good at getting steals and blocking shots and then getting his team points in transition off those turnovers
we need a kuminGOD video
Hot take but I feel like Jaden McDaniels has a higher celling than Paolo Banchero
Iβm not saying heβs a Leonard two way hof but he has the potential to be the best defender on a championship team while being the 2nd option
I see him as a Grant from Portland
A better Harris from 6ers
A better RJ from Knicks
A Star indeed!!!!
Jaden Mcdainel
Yes he is but for some stupid reason, Finch does not design plays for him and he doesn't design place for anyone, yes he should be averaging 20 points per game for sure right now Anthony Edwards said that we don't even know the half of how talented he is, it's ridiculous he's not getting more touches, Finch needs to make sure he gets fifteen to twenty shots per game at least
Yeahh man…people need to take notice
thanks for shedding light on underrated/under-appreciated players
Heβs cold we love him in MNβ¦ we got Mj& Scotty 2.0
was waiting on this one king
love the size skill combo, reminds me of what was expected out of cam reddish
Happy for the brother, this is why you give players time to develop
No. Great role player. Not an all-star.
Naz Reid would be a top 10 player in the league if he got minutes.
Can we get a video on Austin Reaves? The man is legit keeping the Lakers season alive and deserves some respect outside of us Lakers fans who get to enjoy him every game.
He was a dawg back in highschool I watched him at the Tacoma done
Already one of my most favorite Timberwolves players, I hope he can expand his offensive game how Mikal Bridges has.
Timberwolves had McDaniels and Vanderbilt and decided they didn't like winning.
Shout out Clint Parks
hey do you do the video editing yourself or have someone do it?
It may seem like a stretch now but he could easily be in a similar path like kawhi was big key player on defense but then he grows into an offensive threat
