On today’s show, Dane is joined in-studio by Timberwolves guard D’Angelo Russell. The early parts of the conversation cover the changes to the Wolves roster and organization this offseason — from the Rudy Gobert trade, to how this roster might fit together from a basketball standpoint and to the status of Russell being in a contract year. Other topics include:

— Russell’s view on the fit of Gobert and Karl-Anthony Towns

— The nature of having four serious offensive weapons in the starting lineup

— The lack of continuity Russell has had in his career, and the value he sees in being in one place for an extended period of time

— Playing in a contract year

— Reflecting on the Memphis series

— Chris Finch’s style of coaching and the brand of basketball he wants his team to play

— The emergence of Jaden McDaniels and Jaylen Nowell

— A loaded Western Conference

— The excitement surrounding the team
