Timberwolves coach Chris Finch spoke about how LaMelo Ball fits into the offense and what role Joan Beringer will play. No specifics beyond the topic itself came through in the headline.
LaMelo Ball
Ball sits at 38.2 FPG on the season, 39th in the league, and he's been trending up, averaging 41.3 FPG over his last 10. Both a usage signal and a minutes signal fired on him recently, with minutes up to 30.3 over his last 10 versus 28.1 for the season. He's rostered in 99% of leagues, so there's no add angle here. This is a hold, and the coach comments are consistent with more offense running through him, not a change in outlook.
Joan Beringer
Beringer is a 9.3 FPG player on the season, ranked 405th, but he's up to 16.0 FPG over his last 10 and a usage signal along with a minutes signal both fired on him. Minutes have climbed from 7.9 for the season to 10.9 over his last 10. He's rostered in under 1% of leagues. This is a streaming watch in deep leagues only, not a real add yet given how thin his season sample still is.
Props
This touches points and assists markets for Ball, and rebounds and blocks for Beringer, given his shot-blocking role.
