Jeff Teague: The good, the bad and the ugly

Jeff Teague‘s basketball abilities are an interesting topic of discussion for Minnesota Timberwolves fans.

Many fans believe that Teague is the perfect fit for the new era Timberwolves. He can hit more threes than Ricky Rubio, provide athleticism in the starting point guard role, and has playoff experience on multiple teams.

Yet some still doubt his distribution skills and overall scoring ability. The center of the fan debate is whether or not Teague was worth signing because Rubio finished the 2015-2016 season strong. He averaged 11.1 points, 9.1 assists and 4.1 rebounds per game — the most points and assists he’s ever averaged in his career.
