We welcomed our beautiful baby girl into the world last night at 9:05 pm. Becoming her dad is the greatest honor of my life! I’ll give her a few days before we start watching Olivia Miles film.

Wolves land their starting 4 in Jonathan Kuminga! Smart for him to find a great situation to thrive in, and for the club who needed someone legit in the starting lineup at the right $$. Their pace should be the best it’s been in forever with LaMelo & Kuminga entering the picture.

Naz Reid is gone to Charlotte but he’s a Wolf legend forever. One of the greatest success stories in franchise history, from undrafted to 6MOY to $125 mill. He became the Wolves best bench player ever. Naz truly left his mark in Minnesota, and for that, he’ll be missed by many.

Just imagining off-ball Anthony Edwards with LaMelo, who can find him for tons of catch-&-shoot 3s. Ant shot 49.6% on those but only 2.3 attempts, think if they can get that to 5-6. Jaden backdoor cuts for slams, hit aheads in transition to inject pace, PnR lobs to Rudy and Joan.

My gut reaction: I love this for the Wolves. Losing Naz Reid hurts. It's Naz Reid. He's a cult hero in Minnesota. But LaMelo Ball is a 24-year-old All-Star PG who instantly makes the game easier for Ant and everyone around him. The floor general they badly needed. Big-time swing!

Wolves desperately need a PG but there's little out there in unrestricted FA. Coby White is likely too expensive, Collin Sexton isn't a great fit; both score first, same as Bones. Then it's replacement level or old vets like Conley. Except one tempting option: Brandon Williams!

I'm going to need a lot more coffee to process this LaMelo Ball-Naz Reid trade. Wolves get the dynamic PG they badly needed next to Edwards. The cost is one of their most beloved players ever, 1 future first, 3 first rd. swaps + 3 seconds. LaMelo-Ant is an electrifying backcourt.

Happy to see Micah Nori get the head coaching job in Portland, he's deserving of a lead role, but a one-year deal with two team options is an odd contract. Hey, we like you, but not sure how much we like you.

Huge night in Wolvesdom with two major moves the night before the draft. Salary dumping (or redistribution!) Julius Randle to Brooklyn and locking Ayo Dosunmu in long term with the 5-year, $112M bag. Feel like both moves were necessary this offseason.

OH MY GOD. I cannot believe the Knicks won that game. Most epic Finals comeback, down 29. Nothing going right. Spurs have to be absolutely sick. And what in the world was Fox thinking not killing clock. No idea how San Antonio can overcome WHAT JUST HAPPENED. JUST WOW. SHOCKING!!
