Minnesota Timberwolves: Ant Goes Nuclear & Beringer Delivers

The Wolves go 1–2 this week, and somehow we still feel good about it. We break down the full week: a 139–106 stomp of the Bucks, a sloppy 110–105 loss to the Rockets without Ant, and an all-time fun 126–123 comeback loss to the Spurs featuring Anthony Edwards’ 55 points and a nuclear fourth quarter.We also dig into the feel-good story of Joan Beringer earning real rotation minutes (and why Finch’s rotations have fans losing it), plus the Wolves’ bench scoring problem and what this team still needs for a deep run.In Stat Chat, we talk team rankings and the wild stat of the month: Donte DiVincenzo leading the NBA in plus-minus since January 1 — and what he’s doing that matters even when the shot isn’t fully falling.We close with One Big Thing: the passing of the torch (Ant vs Wemby vibes, and who what young stars to watch), Howl or Foul on Beringer's role even after Rudy returns, and Helping the Pack + a community care shoutout (Minnesota Immigrant Rights Action Committee food card fundraiser).Next up: Jazz, Bulls, Warriors. Tom and Josh both say 3–0.Follow/subscribe for weekly Wolves talk every Monday at 6 a.m. Go Wolves.https://www.givemn.org/organization/Mirac?utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bio
