On today’s show, Dane is joined by Jace Frederick of the St. Paul Pioneer Press to give their takeaways from the Wolves preseason opener in Miami on Tuesday night. In a game that Karl-Anthony Towns Rudy Gobert and D’Angelo Russell all sat out, what stood out from the players who did play and got the chance to take on a bigger role?

— Anthony Edwards functioning as the point guard in DLo’s absence

— Jaylen Nowell getting the start and looking like the most talented bench guard on the roster

— Naz Reid and Nate Knight get the chance to play significant minutes in Towns and Gobert’s absence

— A commitment to the “high wall” concept with Gobert not playing

— Kyle Anderson and Taurean Prince showcase the skills that could make them valuable this season
