I asked Naz Reid if he was aware of his popularity among Timberwolves fans and if that played any role in his decision to re-sign with the team this summer.

Interesting sequence here:
Rudy is upset that no one will pass him the ball, shows frustration, & then doesn’t rotate to protect the rim.
Seems like KAT kinda notices this, & responds by feeding Gobert on back-to-back possessions.
