I feel the largest additional factor the Wolves want from Mike Conley in Ant’s absence is the floater sport.
PnR between Conley and Gobert isn’t going to be surrounded by taking pictures as a consequence of accidents, taking away Rudy — so the one actual benefit in PnR goes to be Mike off the display screen. – 4:04 PM
