Napheesa Collier signs a $1.4M dollar one year extension with the Lynx. That it's just one year is concerning. Do the Wolves need to win one of the first two games in Denver? Jim makes his prediction on the series. Judge vs Trout in New York was great theatre, that not many people care about this time of year unfortunately.

Jim and Todd preview the Wolves-Nuggets series. How do they deal with Jokic? The Lynx take a PG with the #2 pick in the WNBA Draft. How long a leash does SWR have in the Twins rotation?

JP Cola in today for Todd Bergeth for Live @ 5 Sports.  Today Jim Souhan joins JP Cola and talk about all things Minnesota Sports.  The Twins remain hot and are now the top team in the AL Central.  The Minnesota Timberwolves prepare for NBA Playoffs.  And the Wild are gearing up for the start of the NHL playoffs vs. the Stars.

JP Cola in for Todd Bergeth on today's episode of Live @ 5 Sports.  Today JP and Jim Souhan talked all things Minnesota Sports.

Jim and Todd talk about the Masters and where Rory might be considered among the greats of the game. Timberwolves get some great play at the end of the season from their young players. Where was this earlier in the season.

Jim and Todd talk about the Twins sweeping the Tigers. Mick Abel pitched well and a big hit for Brooks Lee. Rory started fast at The Masters, usually he doesn't. Does that mean he could make it back-to-back Masters titles. Kirk Cousins to the raiders is smart by both sides.

Jim and Todd talk about the Twins win on Wednesday night over the Tigers with Bailey Ober beating Framber Valdes. There is concern about Ober's velocity being down, but he was effective vs Detroit. Wolves are locked into the #6 seed and almost certain to match-up with Denver. Is Nikola Jokic playing for his legacy?

Jim and Todd talk about the Twins and Taj Bradley. If Bradley pitches this well all year, the Twins may have won last year's trade deadline. Tanking in the NBA in the spotlight again. A Masters preview, Jim doesn't think it's Scottie or the field, he names his players to watch. 

Jim and Todd talk about Michigan's national championship win. The Timberwolves are banged up, and Edwards knee issues are a real thing. He will play again this year, but could be diminished. The Twins are getting some production from the middle of the lineup, but some trying to hold onto their spot are struggling. It's Masters Week, who does Jim want to see in the Final pairing on Sunday.

Jim talks about how writers do column's in advance, and some times the timing isn't great when it gets released. The Timberwolves are heading for the #6 seed and will likely play Denver. High level basketball on display this weekend between the Spurs and Nuggets. The women's champion in UCLA is deserving, and perhaps the Lynx select their star player with the #2 pick in this month's draft. Jim and Todd like Michigan over UConn.
