Anthony Edwards once said: “They got KD, but we got Jaden McDaniels.”
In Game 2 against Phoenix, McDaniels made his teammate look like a prophet. Final game story from Target Center. Have a read:

Naz Reid on Jaden McDaniels’ confrontation with Devin Booker and how his energy can fuel the team:
“That’s my brother. So especially for me, I feel some type of way. So if he gets into that fire, I feel like I’m going in there with him.” – 11:40 PM

The brutal part is the Suns probably got the best games they’re gonna get out of Eric Gordon and Drew Eubanks. Still getting walloped by Jaden McDaniels, Rudy Gobert and Mike Conley – 10:05 PM

Another bucket for Wolves leading scorer, Jaden McDaniels.
But don’t sleep on how it was created — more good stuff coming from that 4-5 pick and roll with Towns and Gobert pic.twitter.com/5hUz9M4BVk – 9:58 PM

If you’re Phoenix, you’ll take Jaden McDaniels taking 8 shots from the field, even though he has 10 points, instead of Karl-Anthony Towns, who has taken just 2 shots and has just 2 points on FTs and has only played 8 minutes due to having 3 fouls.
#Suns up 5. 3:03 left in half. – 8:44 PM

Foul on Devin Booker, technical foul on Jaden McDaniels. Crowd doesn’t like it, but that’s the right call – 8:40 PM

Jaden McDaniels just did a IRL NBA Street slip n slide to save his dribble and it rightfully so led to a bucket for him. – 8:25 PM

Suns start 0-for-3 with 3 TOs, while an Anthony Edwards pull-up 3, a Jaden McDaniels poster attempt over KD and a Gobert poster over Nurk have this crowd fired up. Wolves up 8-0 to start – 7:48 PM
