The Dane Moore NBA Podcast

On this Monday's episode Dane is joined in Denver by Nuggets beat writers Adam Mares, Harrison Wind and Brendan Vogt to discuss the newly acquired Timberwolves. Adam, Harrison and Brendan have the unique perspective of having covered the entire careers of Malik Beasley, Juancho Hernangomez and Jarred Vanderbilt. They bring perspective on who those three players were in Denver and what they could become in Minnesota. Also discussed are Keita Bates-Diop and Noah Vonleh, who now find themselves buried on the bench in Denver. We wrap the show by looking at how different the paths of the Timberwolves and Nuggets have been since the two teams met in "Game 82" of the 2017-18 season.
