    Milton was driving into the paint that are guarded not only by KAT and Rudy but other two defenders as well.

    He damn sure knew he’s going to get demolished lol

    Both Rudy and KAT have length and girth powering their D. Only top ballers would be able to overcome that.

    KAT playing defense like this is a game changer. Straight-up, strong defense in the paint, shuffling his feet and keeping his hands active on the perimeter. Over the last few seasons, he’d improved from a bad defender to a mediocre defender, and this year he’s just actively a good defender.

      I didn’t think we’d ever see it. maybe Ant taking over as the clear #1 on offense has given KAT more space to focus on other things. or maybe it just took time to mesh w/ Gobert. either way it’s surprising but amazing and so fun to watch

      That’s what happens when you get to train and practice with one of the best defenders in NBA history

        I’m so happy Wolves fans also get Rudy now. Jazz fans defended that man for years alone.

        As a Jazz fan and habitual Rudy defender I’m so glad he is STILL the man.

    I thought KAT fouled by jumping forward instead of straight up. That was a lot of body contact. Rudy’s perimeter D was impressive though.

    That’s a foul on Kat? Unless the offensive player caused him to lower his left arm
