• Podcast Locked On Wolves · 3 points · Oct 21
  • Wolves shot 62% from the line. That includes garbage-time misses by Jaylen Clark and Terrence Shannon Jr, and Gobert went 5 of 8. Host says free throws need to improve. at 16:59
  • It names Jaylen Clark and, with 'I would assume', Shannon. This conflicts with the later statement that Clark was not in the rotation, so who the first subs were is unclear. at 20:47
  • No 10th or 11th man played. Cody Williams, Jaylen Clark and Bones Hyland were all left out of Chris Finch's opening-night rotation. at 21:37

• Podcast Locked On Wolves host · Prediction · Oct 21 name not confirmed

  Host predicts end-of-season minutes ranks of Bones about ninth, Clark maybe 10th and Terrence Shannon Jr 10th-11th. He floats that Shannon could be moved by the deadline if so. He says it is entirely possible Jaylen Clark starts the year as the 11th man.

• Podcast Ben Beecken, Locked On Wolves · Analysis · Oct 19

  Bench outlook: Dosunmu is not worse defensively than late-stage Jaylen Clark is probably in the rotation or on its fringe. Terrence Shannon Jr and Hyland are not good defenders, while Beringer is.

  • Cody Williams was not in the 10-man rotation, and the Wolves did not play an 11th man until midway through the fourth quarter. Earlier in the preseason, Williams had been the 10th man or Clark the 11th. at 4:46
  • Host does not think Jaylen Clark will be in the regular rotation initially, alongside Cody Williams; he says this game matched that view. at 4:02

  • Ben Beecken: The host says it seems pretty clear that the 9th and 10th rotation spots will be split among Trey Lyles, Jaylen Clark and Bones Hyland. at 3:16
  • Ben Beecken: In the host's view, Cody Williams is clearly the 11th man, and the host does not see him getting minutes ahead of Jaylen Clark. at 7:06
  • Ben Beecken: Comparing the two, the host calls Jaylen Clark the better defender pound for pound. He says there is more trust built up with Clark, who is known to guard point-of-attack ball handlers, while he is unsure Cody Williams can move laterally well enough to do that. at 7:47
  • Ben Beecken: The host thinks Jaylen Clark and Cody Williams are battling for the 9th through 11th spots. He expects usage to depend on the matchup and on form, and says it is Chris Finch's decision. at 8:37

  • Ben Beecken: Host view: Joan Beringer was good defensively again. The host said Isaiah Evans was nothing to write home about and Jaylen Clark was really good. at 24:34
