Your starters for Timberwolves-Grizzlies on a Monday night — Minn. D’Angelo Russell, Karl-Anthony Towns, Anthony Edwards, Jaden McDaniels, Patrick Beverly. Grizz: Ja, JJJ, Bane, Adams, Melton. And I’m betting Beverly’s job is to piss off Ja all night. – 7:58 PM

Joe Mullinax @sbnGrizzlies

So settling in for a Monday night game between Minnesota and the Grizz. Your officials for tonight’s game Bill Kennedy, Dedric Taylor, Leon Wood. And somewhere on the western side of Michigan, @badunclep shivered in the sub-50s temperatures either because of the cold or the crew. – 7:51 PM

My @PrizePicks over/unders for Wolves-Grizz
– JJJ over 5.5 rebs
Wolves are last in NBA in DREB%
– McDaniels under 5.5 pts
Hasn’t scored over 5 in a game (+ wonder if role might shrink)
– Morant under 24.5 pts
Wolves whole plan will be to trap Ja PnRs
– KAT over 8.5 rebs
Too low – 6:47 PM

Coach Jenkins said Dillon Brooks had great check-in with the doctors and said it was a matter of them and the performance team deciding when it is best for him to come back. – 6:29 PM

Good evening Grizz Nation, @bcabraham checking in as we are set to talk with Taylor Jenkins ahead of tonight’s game against the Timberwolves – 6:14 PM

Dane Moore @DaneMooreNBA
Tyus Jones has had the best assist-to-turnover ratio in the NBA each of the past three seasons
18-19: 7-to-1
19-20: 5.2-to-1
20-21: 5.5-to-1
This season, @Tyus Jones has 31 assists and 1 turnover — again leading the league.
And fun fact: @Tre Jones is 2nd in the league at 9-to-1. pic.twitter.com/0DxWNIgxE2 – 5:54 PM

Dane Moore @DaneMooreNBA
The Wolves have lost 4 straight.
The last time the Wolves lost 4 in a row was during Chris Finch’s first 4 games as coach.
And after that 4th game, Finch made a starting lineup change: He took Jake Layman, who had been completely out of the rotation, and made Layman a starter. – 5:14 PM

Drew Hill @DrewHill_DM
Opposing starting point guards against the Timberwolves in the last four games:
24.0 points, 6.3 assists, 5.8 rebounds

Wolves rank last in the NBA in defensive rebounding + the Grizzlies rank 5th in offensive rebounding.
Watch KCP on this play. This is how you guard Ja-Adams PnR but also finish the play w/ a box. KCP doesn’t get rebound in the box score, but he’s the reason Adams doesn’t either pic.twitter.com/Rbjy8JSVNw – 4:03 PM
