The Minnesota Timberwolves are 2-3 after surprisingly falling short 116-115 to a snake-bitten Los Angeles Lakers squad. What's really been shocking about the Wolves' struggles is how bad their defense has been, ranking 25th on the season after back-to-back seasons in the top 10.
After Monday's loss to the Denver Nuggets, head coach Chris Finch controversially called out the team's best two defenders, Rudy Gobert and Jaden McDaniels. If you are a part of Wolves Twitter, you'll know this caused an uproar, and many people began pointing fingers at Finch. Additionally, McDaniels didn't seem to appreciate this message.
