Today, Timberwolves President Connery was interviewed.
Speaking of McDaniels' performance, Connery said: "I have been urging him to strengthen his rebounding ability. He has started to improve this season. Now we are still joking about it. Is it as simple as just shouting 'Go and grab rebounds' to him? I think his potential is limitless. He is one of the best young players in the NBA. His mid-range shooting ability is top-notch but underestimated. His ability to create shooting opportunities is obvious to all. Obviously, his performance in the playoffs over the past two seasons has proved that he has never feared critical moments. On the defensive end, there is no better young defensive wing in the league than him. We believe he has a chance to be a good player."
