Podcast appearances and mentions of karl anthony towns

On today's show, Dane is joined by Britt Robson of MinnPost to recap the Timberwolves swirling draft night and the swirl of rumors surrounding D'Angelo Russell. Dane and Britt start by discussing the approach Tim Connelly and the revamped front office took to the draft, and from there get in to the players they ultimately wound up with. The focus begins with Walker Kessler, the Wolves top pick on Thursday. The discussion is not exclusively about Kessler as a player but also about how this seems to signal a new view of how to build out the frontcourt around Karl-Anthony Towns. Wendell Moore Jr. is next up. A high character, high work-ethic player that really seems to fit Tim Connelly's style in Denver. Also some discussion on Josh Minott, who seems to be the upside swing of the draft. Finally, some more D'Angelo Russell discussion. Obviously some discussion on the rumors surround DLo, but also on his fit on this team as they begin to play a different style of game from last season.

On today's show, Dane is joined by Britt Robson of MinnPost to discuss Tim Connelly being named president of basketball operations, Karl-Anthony Towns making All-NBA, Malik Beasley's future with the Wolves and what Andrew Wiggins is doing in the playoffs. With Connelly being named POBO on Monday, Dane and Britt reflect on the process that led to the hire. The Sachin Gupta and Chris Finch dynamics with Connelly. They also reflect on how the leadership core has shifted from Tom Thibodeau's dismissal in 2018 to where it is today, just four years later. KAT making All-NBA is a deserving and impressive accomplishment for the 2021-22 season. It also opens up the possibility of signing a 4-year, $211 million supermax contract extension. That is discussed at length, along with other moves that Connelly could potentially make in his first few months on the job. Finally, Dane and Britt discuss Andrew Wiggins's success in Golden State reaching a new peak in the conference finals. A discussion about why this has come together for Wiggins in Golden State and why it seemed unlikely he would ever hit this level had he stayed in Minnesota. Learn more about your ad choices.
