The timely cutting from Jaylen Clark continues to pop. Not an incredibly athlete but his technique and attention to detail makes up for it. Good work here in the dunker spot.

As of a week ago, Jaylen Clark hadn’t played real minutes in a game since tearing his achilles in college two years ago. He’s now averaging 17 minutes a night over the Wolves last 5 games, and tonight played in crunchtime — scored a career-high 17 points, hitting 4 of his 6 3-point attempts. Asked Clark what this last week has been like for him
