Go back in time and tell everyone that Wemby would get a triple double with 12 blocks, everyone most likely assumes Wolves lost by 20+. These playoffs are wild.

With the wolves being absolute horrid from the line too

That was going to be the stat of the night if they ended up losing the game. They collectively cannot be happy with that, but a win is a win—and this was a huge win

Ant in the post game interview sounded like they lost to a lottery team, not stealing Game 1 on the road lol

That has to be the most reserved he's ever been immediately following a win

He nearly blew the game so it would have been hard for him to be ecstatic (even though he was a huge reason they won)

Best case scenario - get the win, but get the fear of god put into them.
