It’s only been 2 games but it is impressive that they held teams under 90. More importantly, this defense is without Jaden McDaniels and it looks sustainable. We’ll see how the defense holds up, the real test is the Nuggets.

Filtering out garbage time, Wolves currently have the 29th offense (102.6) but their defense has been so insanely good (92.8) that they are 6th in point differential (+9.8).

Sidenote: Utah is currently the 30th defense and by a wide margin (125.8 and the 29th defense is 120.2)…I’m glad we have Rudy Gobert.
