Ant shot making was obviously incredible
His defensive activity was fantastic
That was the highest motor game I think we’ve seen from him in quite some time

Yep.
I wrote about the LaMelo trade. Think this was a big reason why the Wolves didn't waste any time in getting it done. theringer.com/2026/06/25/nba…

Ant just looked at every person to ever wear a “Miami Heat” uniform and asked “the FUCK is wrong with y’all???”

Have been most impressed by Jonathan Kuminga.
Only guy on the team who can do anything defensively against Giannis, and fitting into a medium-sized role on offense cleanly.

Elston Turner played with MJ, the NBA's all-time great 2-way guard.
And while the game has evolved in ways that perhaps make such dominance more difficult, Turner still believes 2-way stardom is achieveable today.
Anthony Edwards is out to prove it

Critical extension for the Thunder to lock in Wallace ahead of restricted free agency next summer -- now having their starting five all under contract for several years. Wallace led the NBA in total steals and deflections last season and has ranked third in steals per game in each of the last 2 seasons, per ESPN Research. He now steps into a starting role with a new extension.
Just in: Oklahoma City Thunder All-Defensive guard Cason Wallace has agreed to a five-year, $139 million rookie-scale contract extension, agents Jeff Schwartz, Max Lipsett and Marcus Monk of Excel Sports Management tell ESPN.

Another Jon K. classic. Love this quote from Tim Connelly about how he sees his job. nytimes.com/athletic/7685060…
Since he arrived in Minnesota, no executive has been more active than Tim Connelly. Fueled by Baltimore swagger and Catholic guilt, he has remade the Wolves over and over in pursuit of the title he left behind in Denver.

I hope I look really stupid with this in a few weeks but through 3.5 preseason games, I am concerned about Ant's athleticism. He has shown no burst or lift yet this preseason. He's not getting by the defender and it doesn't look like he can elevate, especially not quickly.
