Minnesota Timberwolves: Jarrett Culver is coming along on both sides of the ball

The Minnesota Timberwolves moved up in the draft to select Jarrett Culver at the No. 6 spot. The rookie from Texas Tech has had a lot of up-and-downs this season, but has started to string consistent performances together over the last handful of games.

Coming into the league, the Wolves believed they were getting a potential two-way star. Thus far, he's shown more promise on the defensive end with more ups and downs on offense. Culver has been most effective with the ball in his hand, which has its benefits and negatives.

Obviously, it's good to see him excel with the ball, but when he's not controlling the offense, it can be hard to watch him play at times due to his complete lack of a shooting stroke.
