Minnesota Timberwolves Underestimated Again by ESPN's Kevin Pelton's Win Projections

from Locked On Wolves - Daily Podcast On The Minnesota Timberwolves · host Locked On Podcast Network

The Minnesota Timberwolves' win projection total by ESPN's Kevin Pelton is far too low -- for the second straight year. Ben Beecken (@bbeecken) explains why after lowballing the Wolves last year, the projection model didn't learn its lesson. Progression and continuity with Anthony Edwards, Julius Randle, and others are a big reason why they certainly won't be worse this season. Plus, thoughts on Naz Reid playing the 3 next to Randle and Rudy Gobert. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! QuoSee why over 90,000 businesses trust Quo, formerly OpenPhone.
