"Wolf is still separated from the pack. After Day'Ron Sharpe was sidelined against the Toronto Raptors with a left glute contusion, it seemed like the perfect chance for Danny Wolf to earn meaningful minutes. The 6-11 rookie was coming off a standout G League performance two days earlier, when he posted 25 points on 10-for-19 shooting with 13 rebounds and two assists against the Capital City Go-Go."
"Again, it's an ankle sprain and you don't want that to happen, but it happens. It happens multiple times in this game, and having that positive mindset of, 'I'm going to strengthen up whatever issue I have and be ready to help my teammates' and that's what he usually does. So, give him a lot of credit. I know when his number is called, he'll be ready."
Danny Wolf, the 6-11 rookie and 27th pick, has received minimal NBA minutes after an early ankle sprain and peripheral role decisions. He delivered a 25-point, 13-rebound performance in the G League but entered only garbage time against the Raptors, scoring two free throws and grabbing a defensive rebound. Head coach Jordi Fernández praised Wolf's professionalism and recovery work yet has seldom relied on him in the rotation. Wolf and Ben Saraf were sent back to Long Island while Egor Demin and Drake Powell have received more developmental opportunities.
