That answers the question I came here to ask. Didn’t see Malcolm in the box score or listed as DNP coaches decision. Likely just a miss on the box score.

Frazier and Curbelo were injured at the same time. DFW and Hawkins were used at the point. Both did a poor job. Podz stayed on the bench. I'd be a little salty, especially since he knows that he is a better player than everyone who was on that team.

He wasn't at that time. It's not Brad's fault he couldn't catch up to the D1 big school game until his sophomore year.

Not enough talk about TSJ today.

I watched the game. He was a man amongst boys. He was their go-to player, even with #8 pick Dillingham on the court. The announcers were fawning over him all game.

His game WILL translate to the NBA even when he plays bigger and faster players. In his postgame interview, he kinda smirked and said something to the effect that it wasn't one of his best performances.

My cousin is a huge TWolves fan, and he said that his group of friends think TSJ looks like a top 10 or better draft pick.

Small sample size, but I think he is going to open some eyes. And I couldn't be happier for the kid.

If any transfer recruit wants to see what a difference our program can make, please direct their attention to TSJ. He was a MAN amongst boys today. The announcers were fawning over him. Strength, intelligence, the entire package.

Oh, and the #8 pick of the draft on the same team was decent, but in a small sample size, TSJ is the better player and it's not close. The announcers were saying that TSJ was highly impressive the entire week and the Minn staff is thrilled they have him.

After the game, he was interviewed, and he smirked and said that it wasn't his best performance. I am wayyy too biased, but I think there could be a GIANT payday in his future. And all I'll think about are dollar sign face emojis headed the way of TSJ and not anyone else!

Given what that kid has gone through, he is my #1 favorite player in the NBA (sorry Ayo, you're still top 2).

Ayo meant more for the Illinois program, and so I’ll always put him on a pedestal. He can do no wrong in my eyes.

Terrence’s game is much better and much more suited for the NBA, especially given the environment he is in. Most NBA teams want the 19 year old rookie because they have time to develop further and the team can ride that youth wave. Minnesota is ready to compete now and needed a complimentary backcourt piece for Ant that wasn’t going to take time to develop. Great landing spot for TSJ. That’s going to be a fun team.
