Spencer Levy, for most of an hour-long conversation, scribbles words on an electronic tablet as he describes the ups and downs of the season he is trying to help Jaylen Nowell navigate.
Levy, who played basketball at Occidental College in Los Angeles, is a skills coach and trainer Nowell has worked with since he entered the NBA draft process. But when Nowell assumed a larger role this season with the Timberwolves, Levy's role also increased — so much that he has been Nowell's house guest for a lot of the season.
It's a good thing the two enjoy each other's company.
