"Give him time, and nights like Saturday can happen. In the Nets' win over the Washington Wizards, Wolf turned in his most complete performance in months: 16 points on 7-for-11 shooting, seven rebounds, six assists and a 73 true shooting percentage in just under 20 minutes. He got downhill, made plays for others and finished possessions. The game came to him, and when it did, he didn't hesitate."
""Reads look easier and quicker. You know the shots you want, and you can pass on the ones you don't. The last month or two has been a lot of learning. I was playing off the ball and everything felt sped up. There will be games where that's my role, and when coach gives me the ball and trusts me, it's on me to make the right play. I know I'm a work in progress, especially off the ball.""
Danny Wolf has shown clearer growth when granted more minutes, translating into higher scoring, rebounding and playmaking numbers and more three-pointers per game. Through 37 games he averages 8.1 points, 4.6 rebounds and 2.0 assists, while in games over 20 minutes he averages 11.6 points, 5.7 rebounds and 2.7 assists. A recent 16-point, seven-rebound, six-assist performance in under 20 minutes illustrated downhill attacking, playmaking and efficient finishing. Wolf is balancing aggression and patience, learning off-ball responsibilities and shot selection while coaches encourage paint penetration, kick-outs and efficient decisions to build trust and sustained playing time.
