Timberwolves' Mike Conley problem is hurting the team in the most expected way
Denver Nuggets v Minnesota Timberwolves | David Berding/GettyImagesMike Conley has had a terrific career and has been a key part of the Minnesota Timberwolves' two consecutive conference finals runs. I can't emphasize this enough. However, at 38, this is clearly the end of the road for Conley.
Heading into the season, it was fair to expect Conley to decline. He was coming off a career-worst season and getting a year older. Just over halfway into the season, Conley has fallen off the cliff. The 6-foot-1 point guard is averaging just 4.8 points, 1.7 rebounds, and 2.9 assists on 34.2/33.9/88.1 shooting splits. Conley's 34.2 field goal percentage is among the worst marks in the league.
