On today’s show, Dane is joined by Jace Frederick of The St. Paul Pioneer Press to discuss which Timberwolves players found their way onto CBS Sports and ESPN’s top 100 lists. Dane and Jace go position-by-position to discuss where Rudy Gobert, Karl-Anthony Towns, Anthony Edwards and D’Angelo Russell rank amongst their positional peers. And discuss whether or not Jaden McDaniels has a case to be one of the top 22 small forwards in the league this season.
— Questions comparing Gobert to Anthony Davis and Bam Adebayo
— Is it ridiculous that Zion Williamson ranks above KAT at power forward?
— Is KAT at 20 on CBS Sports’s overall list too low? Is KAT 13th on ESPN’s overall list too high?
— How does Ant compare to Donovan Mitchell, Zach LaVine and Bradley Beal (all of whom rank above him)? How does Ant compare to Jordan Poole and Tyler Herro (who rank below him)
— D’Angelo Russell not making CBS Sports’s top 100 list or their top 22 point guard list. What is the case to have DLo be in those ranking above players like De’Aaron Fox, Jalen Brunson and Tyrese Haliburton?
