Zach Lowe says the quiet part out loud about Mike Conley

The Minnesota Timberwolves' point guard room and especially the play of Mike Conley have drawn the attention of observers, all for the wrong reasons. During a recent episode of The Zach Lowe Show, Lowe was discussing teams that are on notice early in the season. Lowe mentioned the Wolves and made a somewhat offhanded but important comment about Conley.

"Timberwolves, 2-3, just on notice, changed the starting five, that was a little bit of a red flag about Mike Conley," Lowe said.

To Lowe's point, for a Wolves team that lacks playmaking and a true point guard, it's hard not to raise your eyebrows about benching Conley in favor of Donte DiVincenzo.
