Timberwolves @ Suns 1-22-19

[Mainstreet]

On Tuesday the Suns and Timberwolves go right back at it again but this time the Suns have home court advantage.

The Suns (11-37) are looking to snap a four game losing streak. All the losses were on the road with the last being a tough 116-114 loss to the Wolves in the closing seconds.

The Wolves (22-24) are starting a three game road trip in Phoenix.

Ayton is doubtful and Holmes is questionable for the game.

Go Dragan.

Blessing in disguise in that we can showcase Bender? Put a few decent games together and he becomes interesting to other teams...

At least Bender playing will add some interest.

He becomes interesting to ME if he can put together a few good games.

I think you might be setting the bar too high. I was thrilled just to see him have one pretty good game in a row. But sure, even though I enjoyed his performance, I'm not buying Bender stock just yet.

The word “if” in my statement is a very big qualifier.

I don’t think anybody is.

What kind of numbers did he put up his last game?

 

[Krangodnzr]

Who knows? Maybe Bender will blossom under Igor's guidance.

 

[Mainstreet]

What kind of numbers did he put up his last game?

Bender had 12 points and 10 rebounds in his last start.

Sorry, that was me was agreeing with you in a tongue in cheek manner.

 

[AzStevenCal]

It wasn't so much the numbers as the fact he had an impact on the game. He's done it before so it's too early to make much of it. Still, it was nice to see even if we lose him this offseason.

This seems to be the winning formula.

Bayless and Rose should have the point guard position more than covered.

Dragan Bender is looking like his true position is center. If true, it's a shame the Suns waited so long to find out.
