I haven’t seen much of Adrien since college, and I know he has played the role of journey man since he has entered the league. When MN signed him I didn’t think much of it, but I have to say he has really impressed me. I assumed he was just another big body that the Wolves could throw out on the court when the depleted bigs get into foul trouble. I have to say, I was wrong. He plays hard, can defend and surprisingly enough can block shots and has offensive skills outside of dunking.

I am sure many of you have known this, but I had no idea. I am surprised he didn’t make a roster this season. Currently he is playing better than Anthony Bennett, and deserves more minutes that him. I don’t really know why I wanted to create a Forum topic like this, but I figured this guy deserves some credit.

And shout out to Dante Cunningham! Wish he was still a Wolf. He was a classy guy that fell on some unfortunate circumstance that skewed the public opinion. I remember when I heard about the incident, I couldn’t believe it, glad to see the truth came out and an NBA team gave him his life back.

Big men who were good/decent players I college but don’t project well are doing good this year with Joey Dorsey in spurts, Tarik Black, and apparently Adrien although admittedly I hadn’t seen or heard anything about him this season.

I completely agree on the Dante Cunningham situation.  At a time when domestic violence in sports is a bigger media target then ISIS those false accusation could have (and temporarily did) ruin him.  Like you said I’m glad he has his life back and can move past this thing that isn’t even his fault.

Last year with the Bucks.  Surprised they did not keep him.  Solid player and good team guy.
