TSJ almost single-handily bringing TWolves back after Edwards ejected. Has 21 with 6 minutes to play.

TSJ taking over after Ant was ejected.
Just blew by LeBron for a layup. Went downhill fast. Made LeBron look like....well....a 40 year old.

Tsj finished with career high and team high 25 points. Likely to get some more playing time as Anthony Edwards will be suspended next game for 16 techs in the season.
TSJ finishes with 25. You go!!!!!!!!!
If we're still going off about how unwatchable the NBA is- the ads are a big turn-off. On-court ads are distracting (the Big East plays with them too), jersey ads are tacky, and there's too many commercials. This is something I've said about the college teams still stuck on ESPN- ESPN does not value the product it carries and it shows through the production. ESPN's NBA halftime show I think is around two minutes of content, they simply do not care about what seems to be their flagship sport.

What more does he have to do to get playing time. It’s so frustrating to watch them waste his talent when he excels every chance he gets.

It’s fun to watch defenders just get out of his way when he drives in the open court fast break. Better to surrender the 2 points than tangle with him at full speed.

TSJ will be an All-Star before his career is over. His game and his athleticism translates.
I love TSJ but there's a huge leap from where he is now to an all star selection.

He's gonna have a long career. He can score at all three levels. He's big, fast, and strong enough to defend all over the court. And less talented guys than him have managed to make one All-Star team. Let's come back to this in a few years.

The thing that's wild about TSJ is that he looks almost out of control but he very much is in control.TSJ is killing it right now
I’ll say it again, TSJ will be an All-Star. He’s just getting started. With his work ethic, I wouldn’t be surprised if he eventually cements himself as one of the most electric players in the league consistently. Give him some time, let him learn, watch him cook.

I looove seeing TSJ blow right past Lebron. I hope they keep playing him even went Ant is on the floor. Special young man right there.
It will be down to having a real right hand and consistency from three. Neither are easy to do, but I have no doubt TSJ will put in the work.
Jaylen Brown still really doesn't have a real left hand though and he's great.
Who do we think have the highest ceiling in the NBA going forward for our three former Illini, Ayo, Podz or TSJ?
Highest ceiling is TSJ, Ayo most sustained success, Podz most Ad revenue received
It's not necessarily a reflection on him but who is ahead of him. He plays with Anthony Edwards but good signs is the was on the floor with him at the same time.
He looked like he was just faster then everyone yesterday just like he was at Illinois... So he should get more time on the floor. Also plays both ways and 3 level scorer will make it hard not to
IMHO, Chris Finch is an idiot if he can't see how much better the T-Wolves are when TSJ gets starter minutes. They look like a different team now that he is in the rotation. If Finch had seen this earlier in the year, TSJ would be in the ROY discussion, and Minnesota would have won a few more games.
Just a thought..but .there have got to be a handful of the teams that would love to have him on the floor in their uniform.
