* and give up 9.3 fewer points per 100 transition plays defensively.
Some of it is just the team as a whole figuring things out, but since his inclusion the Wolves have sorted out many of their season-long problems.
I love Minnesota Mike. Imagine if we had him now during his prime. We’d win the chip
It’s almost as if we have a real point guard.
So much of the Wolves struggles this season has been the team shooting themselves in the foot. Nice to have a vet PG that isn’t going to mess up very often.
I wonder how hard they try to resign him
I don’t know where did this stat come from, nba.com is having 0.5 as his [net rating](https://www.nba.com/stats/players/advanced?CF=MIN*GE*15&SeasonType=Regular%20Season&TeamID=1610612750&dir=-1&sort=OFF_RATING).
Conley has been gobbling up long rebounds that dlo wouldn’t have even stepped one foot toward.

We desperately needed a traditional pg. Dlo is a better fit with LA.
