    This is the deepest team in wolves history and it’s not even close

  2. ghost91372

    Grady sounds like he’s been in the booth for a decade. Very impressive debut for a play by play man

  3. Good sign. Clippers have like 30 big wings that can shoot 3s. That seems like the perfect recipe to take us down.

  4. _Hey-Reddit_

    I’ve seen enough, WE’RE WINNING IT ALL BOYS😩🐺🐺🐺🐺

  5. Wolvesin7

    Only saw the end, but I think we need to get Forbes in the rotation even on a limited basis. His shooting has been lights out so far this preseason.

  6. Luka Garza needs more time fr, don’t be shy Finch

  7. LazyTemperature3064

    Bryn Forbes is going to win at least three games this year all by himself. He’s unconscious

  8. Game was a lot different once KAT started hitting shots. Can’t wait to see the whole starting lineup together.

  9. Underdog_To_Wolf

    Glad KAT and the starters found some rhythm. Can’t wait to see KAT and Rudy together.

    Forbes looks incredible, great pickup by TC. Lots of our rotation pieces looking sharp, Naz made a case for himself tonight.

    3-0 baby! Preseason champs!

  10. Pale_Comfortable4279

    Man that was a fun preseason game. Super pumped for when they count forreal

  11. Forbes 5-6 from three was dope and between him/Nowell I think we’ve replaced the loss of Beasley.

  12. TheShinyRedButton

    Yeah it’s preseason and all but winning still just feels nice

  13. dblackwhite

    I would gladly drop Paschall from that two way spot and put Garza there.

    Also, even though he hasn’t played, I would do the same for Lawson with Dozier as he rehabs.

  14. SupermarketWilling89

    Garza really sealed it, I feel really happy for him- even in a preseason game.

  15. sayqueensbridge

    We’ll all remember where we were for the birth of Garzanity

  16. irishace88

    KAT better shoot 10 3s a game this year, he’s so fucking good.

    If Naz is going to play like that then I don’t know how you keep him out of the rotation.

  17. Dirtee530

    first game of the preseason i’ve caught, i’m still concerned how Ant is utilized within the offense when the starters are all in. He’s either standing in the corner while DLo and Kat play 2 man, or he’s going 1 on 1 after taking the ball up. Not sure what it should look like, but I guess I’d like to see more fluidity, pass and cut, movement, etc.

  18. We’re going to have number one defense in the league

  19. Cameron-0-

    ant only got 3 rebounds? seems like he had a lot more than that

  20. Naz, Garza, Knight. Need to keep em all.

    Oh and that Forbes guy, I’m sold. Automatic shooter

    Keep them all under the umbrella somehow.

  21. FlyingScissor

    Good game, starters still trying to gel but it was good to see KAT hit again (also 6 assists is something to look at). Ant attacked well in the second half. Great to see the Wolves take the Clips haymakers and jab back little by little. Forbes is a sniper. Naz kills opponents bench units. The deep bench unit is good and Iowa will be stacked with talent. Good game and now undefeated in the Grady-Pete era.

  22. Minute-Decent

    I will wear hand make a Bryn Forbes MN Maples jersey and wear it every game if Forbes continues to play llike that
