Full quote from the defensive wizard Beverley:
> "If I'm defensive player of the year, I'm always guarding the best player no matter what. I'm not roaming. It's no discredit to Royce O'Neale or any of the others on their team, but if I'm defensive player of the year, I'm not guarding Royce O'Neale. I'm guarding Mike Conley, I'm guarding Donovan Mitchell, I'm guarding Bogdanovic. You got Rudy Gobert out there guarding Vanderbilt. And every time I hear he's defensive player of the year. So, uh, whatever."
Oh, and the Jazz outscored the Timberwolves by 25 in Rudy Gobert's 31 minutes. A minute detail.

Patrick Beverly continues to show why he is a culture changer in Minnesota.
Beverley Ozuna-Ulrich was last seen October 17, 2003, in Belle Fourche, South Dakota. She should be celebrating her birthday on Friday; instead, her disappearance is still a mystery
Beverly Ozuna-Ulrich, the mother of eight children, was living in Belle Fourche, South Dakota in 2003. A small town of less than 6,000 residents, Belle Forche is about 13 miles from the Wyoming border. A member of the Lakota tribe, Beverly was the youngest of 16 siblings in a large, close-knit family.
Roughly 14 months before Beverly disappeared, she had separated from her husband. However, she would regularly return to the home to cook and clean for the children. Beverely was last seen leaving her South Dakota home on October 17, 2003 by her estranged husband, Steven. Ten days later on October 27, 2003, her family would report her missing. While Beverly was known to travel unannounced from time to time, she always kept in close contact with her children and her siblings.
Two major leads. In February 2004, authorities were alerted to a body that was found along Interstate 90 in South Dakota. Believed to be Beverely, DNA would prove it was another woman who was never publicly identified. Then, in October 2008, five years after she disappeared, a tip was called in to the Belle Forche Police Department which resulted in a canine-led search of a 20-acre site on the outskirts of the city, but there was no sign of Beverely.
What we know about Beverlyβs case today. With little left to go on in her case, investigators and family members believe it is likely that Beverely is deceased. However, they still hold annual vigils in hopes to find out what happened. If you have any information regarding Beverelyβs case, please contact the South Dakota Division of Criminal Investigation at 605-391-6661.
Unfortunately, Beverly is one of the numerous indigenous women who go missing or are murdered throughout the US. Recently, the [formation of a new unit dedicated to missing & murdered indigenous people](https://www.doi.gov/news/secretary-haaland-creates-new-miss

The wolves have had a really good team when those 5 are on the court.
Even without Ant and Vanderbilt, KAT/Dlo/Patbev have a net rating of +24.3 (https://twitter.com/FlyByKnite/status/1478927524491001858).
The depth is a pretty big issue. Especially with Malik Beasley still having incurred the wrath of Clanky the basketball demon. Beasley is shooting at a 34%(!) stroke from 3 on 9(!!) attempts per game.
The rest of the bench is pretty inconsistent as well despite the emergence of Jaylen Nowell.

>Minnesota Timberwolves are now 13-6 when Patrick Beverley, D'Angelo Russell and Karl-Anthony Towns all play. Trio came into tonight with a +24.3 Net Rating in 238 minutes.
>To update this: Minnesota Timberwolves are 13-6 when Patrick Beverley, D'Angelo Russell and Karl-Anthony Towns all play. They have a +26.2 Net Rating in 253 minutes. It's the second-best trio in basketball (minimum 250 minutes). Only trio better? Russell-Towns-Vanderbilt (+28.7).
This is also one of the most absurd starting lineup Net Ratings you'll ever see.

"Minnesota gets the toughness and leadership of Beverley for its young, developing roster. Gersson Rosas had Beverley on his team with Rockets and knows what he brings. Memphis continues to add talent along the margins, including Culver, who's only 22 and a former No. 6 pick."

Patrick Beverley on Rudy Gobert, the DPOY, not taking the challenge of guarding the Timberwolves best player, Karl-Anthony Towns: "If I am DPOY, I am guarding the best player no matter what. I'm not roaming around, it's no discredit to Royce O'Neil but, If I am DPOY I am not guarding Royce. I am guarding Donovan, Bogdan or Conley. And, you got Rudy Gobert out there guarding Vando. Every time I hear he's the DPOY. So, uh, whatever."
