Timberwolves head coach Chris Finch explains why he chose to move Donte DiVincenzo into the starting lineup and bench Mike Conley
If Rudy Gobert was listening and is open to criticism, there's a pretty good chance the 7-footer's rebounding numbers are going to increase.
Minnesota Timberwolves head coach Chris Finch has a blunt response on inquiries about him changing his starting lineup.
The Minnesota Timberwolves have been a mess all season. They traded Karl-Anthony Towns just before the games started to count. There were financial and roster construction reasons to make the move, but Chris Finch’s squad has largely failed to adapt.
Julius Randle is not a good fit for the Wolves and Anthony Edwards is not playing within the offensive system.
Putting DiVincenzo in the starting lineup also gives him a role closer to what he had in New York last season when he thrived as a spark-plug shooter and defender for the Knicks. He started 68 games in the regular season and every playoff game for New York.
Finch did not mention the change during his pregame media availability. The Wolves ruled out Rob Dillingham due to a right ankle sprain. Josh Minott, listed as questionable due to illness, is active against the Clippers, who are at full strength aside from P.J. Tucker, who's been away from the team since October.
Julius Randle has been under fire for much of this season. That was easy to see coming. Randle was the immediate replacement for Karl-Anthony Towns, a pillar of the Timberwolves’ organization
Timberwolves coach Chris Finch made a lineup change Monday, and he joked that he changed his mind because of pressure from the media. But if there is an element of truth to what he said, maybe other coaches will follow suit?
