NBA rules Minnesota’s Jaden McDaniels stepped into Luka Doncic’s path when he tripped with 35 seconds left yesterday.
Also: NBA rules all other calls/non calls were correct in Pistons/Knicks except for Josh Hart fouling Tim Hardaway Jr’s jump shot at the buzzer pic.x.com/pmBYnN8TY0 – 5:46 PM

Jaden McDaniels should have been called for a foul when his feet got tangled with Luka Doncic in the final minute of the Lakers-Timberwolves game yesterday, the NBA says.
It would have given the Lakers free throws, down by 1. – 5:45 PM

😯 Kendrick Perkins says he sees Nico Harrison’s vision “that the Dallas Mavericks were not going to be able to win a championship with Luka” and believes Anthony Edwards has what it takes to win one first! pic.x.com/i7sG40Sxgs – 1:52 PM

Monday’s @LockedOnLakers podcast! The Lakers drop a painful (and controversial) Game 4, and have their backs against the wall. Did JJ make a mistake playing LeBron/Luka/Reaves/Rui/DFS the entire second half? @LockedOnNBAPods @LockedOnNetwork

Anthony Edwards may not want everything that comes with the exalted platform he is approaching. As he walked down Luka and LeBron in the 4th quarter, the conversation started to change.
How can it NOT be him?

Jaylen Brown passed Byron Scott in playoff scoring and is now No. 45 in NBA history.
Giannis Antetokounmpo moved ahead of David Robinson for No. 53.
Luka Doncic passed eight players and is No. 98 all-time. – 1:52 AM

Rick Carlisle hasn’t called many plays for more than a decade. Started with Jason Kidd, then Luka, now Tyrese. Only when he sees something or they’re struggling to execute. – 10:37 PM

Asked Jaden McDaniels about stepping to the line to give the Wolves the lead late: “I shoot a bunch of free throws every day. Just another free throw. I was more worried about when I slammed the ball, my hand was ringing. I was more worried about that than anything.” – 8:12 PM

Luka Doncic acknowledged the disappointment of losing a game that they led by as many as 12 (including 10 to start the 4th Q, 7 with 5:06 left and 2 with 1:29 left), but emphasized that LA haven’t lost the series yet, and that it’s the first to 4. – 7:07 PM

Reaves was awful in the first half (and for much of Game 3) and missed too many gotta-have-it 3’s. Ant has been better than Luka, particularly late. That’s the difference in two very close games. BK – 7:00 PM

I thought JJ really blew it not calling a timeout to go 2 for 1 with 39 seconds left. Ended up with the LeBron turnover in the backcourt, but they weren’t gonna get the 2 for 1 anyway by that point. Luka not exactly the guy to push it up fast. – 7:00 PM

I get no one feels sorry for the big, bad Lakers but…Luka got tripped, no call. Also, Lakers used final time out thinking they had possession down one only to lose it when the challenge – aided by an overhead camera angle – resulted in a LeBron foul on Edwards. Brutal. – 6:54 PM

Rookie Mistake by JJ!!! Bron and Luka were dead tired… you’ve have to find time to get them some rest. Especially a 40 year old Lebron James who’s in his 100th season. – 6:52 PM

Anthony Edwards has been the best player in a series with LeBron James and Luka Doncic. I think that says everything that needs to be said about him. He could really be the best player in the NBA some day. – 6:41 PM

Just gonna come down to how many plays Luka and Ant can make in this last 4:17. You knew this moment was coming in a pivotal swing game for this series. Here it is. – 6:14 PM

Quick 5-0 spurt by Naz Reid – while defending a Luka Doncic missed layup in between his scores – cuts the Lakers’ lead to 104-102 with 4:17 to go. Timeout LAL – 6:14 PM

Another big swing of momentum here as Doncic just missed a layup, and Minnesota got a 3 on the other end from Reid.
Wolves trim the margin to just 2 with 4:17 to play. – 6:13 PM

Edwards hit B2B 3’s to start the 4th Q (33 points), but Reaves answered the 1st, and Doncic got 2 FT’s moments later to keep LA up 9.
Same 5 for the Lakers, no subs so far in the 2nd half. – 5:57 PM

The inconsistency of Jaden McDaniels
Game 1: 25 points, 11/13 FGs (win)
Game 2: 8 points, 3/11 FGs (loss)
Game 3: 30 points, 13/22 FGs (win)
Game 4: 0 points, 0/2 FGs (1st quarter)
Big second quarter for him with Ant on bench. – 4:25 PM

LA take a 12-10 lead into the first time out after LeBron hit a difficult corner 3 over Rudy Gobert’s outstretched arms, and then forced a turnover on Jaden McDaniels.
No turnovers for either team yet. – 4:02 PM

Looks like the Lakers have changed their defensive assignments: Jaxson Hayes was guarding Jaden McDaniels, Rui Hachimura is guarding Rudy Gobert, LeBron James is on Mike Conley. – 3:55 PM

There was a minute in time when there was an early convo about Jaden McDaniels being a #1 pick candidate in HS. Obviously not that guy but very cool how he’s adapted to become a star role player. – 11:39 PM

Other than Anthony Edwards making a billion 3s now, Jaden McDaniels leveling up on offense is the most significant long-term development of the season for Minnesota. – 10:12 PM
