Josh Minott Rumors (original) (raw)

Gobert left the U.S. early last offseason to work with the French national team, but Edwards stayed longer in Minnesota. Every day, the Wolves picked one player who happened to be around — Reid, Josh Minott, Leonard Miller — to mimic Gobert and run pick-and-rolls with Edwards. They practiced pocket passes, skips to the corner, thread-the-needle slips against blitzes, even lobs — though they had no target nearly as tall as Gobert. “Rudy,” Finch said, “is kind of hard to replicate.” Before games now, Edwards huddles with Conley to discuss schemes they might see and passes that might be available. “Every single game,” Edwards told ESPN. “That’s basically all Mike and I talk about.”
