Minnesota actually lost the game to the Kings, 115-104.</p><p>Crowder, who recently joined the Kings, was not too pleased with the trash talking. He clapped back at Randle, which ended up throwing gasoline on a burning fire. Randle then clapped back, using profanity that’s not appropriate to repeat. Edwards then decided to join the fray.</p><p>“Shut up, Jae,” Edwards said.</p><p>It appears there’s no love lost between the players, as the back and forth seemed heated at times. <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/timberwolves-news-julius-randle-jae-crowder-longstanding-beef">Randle and Crowder have reportedly had beef going back years</a> when the Kings forward played for the Phoenix Suns.</p><p>It’s safe to say these two players won’t be headed to the other’s house for Thanksgiving dinner next year.</p><h2>The Timberwolves are underwhelming so far this season</h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/Anthony-Edwards_e20f00.jpg"><figcaption>Brad Rempel-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Minnesota is just 9-10 on the season, which is not what was expected by fans heading into the year.

In return, Minnesota got Randle who was coming off an injury-riddled campaign. This season, Randle is doing his best to stay healthy. He averages 21 points and about seven rebounds a game for a team trying to get on the same page with chemistry.</p><p>In recent NBA Cup play, the Timberwolves finished just 2-2. Minnesota is now third in the Western Conference Northwest division standings, trailing both the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Denver Nuggets.</p><p>Minnesota snapped a four-game losing streak by defeating the Los Angeles Clippers on Friday night.

The Bucks will welcome back the 33-year-old’s 3-and-D presence on a roster that could use the help on the wing.</p><h2><b>Jae Crowder’s time with Bucks</b></h2><p>Jae Crowder re-signed with Milwaukee in the offseason on a one-year deal. He came over to the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/bucks-news-jae-crowders-immediate-reaction-to-trade-to-milwaukee" rel="noopener">Bucks in a trade</a> from the Phoenix Suns last season after sitting out the majority of the season. The veteran was unhappy with his role on the Suns, and the team agreed he could sit out until a suitable trade was found.</p><p>That deal finally happened in February 2023 right ahead of the trade deadline, with Phoenix initially sending Crowder to the Brooklyn Nets as part of the Kevin Durant blockbuster. That trade was then expanded into a <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/suns-news-how-kevin-durant-trade-nuked-nets-jae-crowder-demand" rel="noopener">four-team deal</a> that involved Milwaukee and the Indiana Pacers.</p><p>Crowder appeared in 18 regular-season games last season for the Bucks, averaging 6.9 points and 3.8 rebounds in 18.9 minutes while shooting 43.6% from 3-point land. However, his playing time dwindled in the playoffs as he really struggled in the shocking first-round series loss to the Miami Heat. The veteran forward played just 10.3 minutes per game and shot 23.1% from the field, failing to make a single 3-pointer in the process.</p><p>While last season ended on a poor note, Crowder was playing 26.7 minutes per game in 2023-24 before this injury and was a key member of the rotation again. With Milwaukee struggling on defense for much of this season, he’ll bring some much-needed toughness to the table.</p><p>The Bucks are 28-12, three games behind the first-place Boston Celtics.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

And now, the Bucks’ defensive depth became even thinner after <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/bucks-news-jae-crowder-breaks-silence-on-concerning-injury-that-needs-surgery" rel="noopener">losing Jae Crowder to an injury</a> that needed surgery.</p><p>As a result, the Bucks now have to rely on a few inexperienced players to fill in some minutes for the team on the wing, especially with Khris Middleton still under a minutes restriction. But to MarJon Beauchamp and Andre Jackson Jr.’s credit, they were both prepared to contribute for the team when head coach Adrian Griffin called upon their numbers, as the two both played important roles in the Bucks’ 118-107 win over the Chicago Bulls on Monday night.</p><p>The contributions of Beauchamp and Jackson <a href="https://twitter.com/Stoltzy3/status/1724284452925288943" rel="noopener">did not go lost</a> on Damian Lillard, with the Bucks guard showering the two with lavish praise in his postgame presser following their win over the Bulls.</p><p>“[Jackson] and [Beauchamp], the size, the length that they both have on the perimeter and what they can do on both ends of the floor is really good for our team, especially when they can come out there and play like they played tonight,” Lillard said, per Gabe Stoltz of Brew Hoop. “Tonight they came in and they’re taking advantage of the opportunity.”</p><p>Damian Lillard also shouted out Andre Jackson Jr. for displaying quite the mature disposition on the court for the Bucks despite being in just his first professional season.</p><p>“Dre is a pretty smart rookie. He understands our coverages. […] He understands what he’s out there to do,” Lillard added.</p><p>Bucks veterans Khris Middleton and Bobby Portis also <a href="https://twitter.com/Stoltzy3/status/1724288593894555972" rel="noopener">joined the lovefest</a>, expressing what they feel about getting tons of contributions from <a href="https://twitter.com/eric_nehm/status/1724285509931798680" rel="noopener">two of the team’s young wings</a>.</p><p>“You can see the potential there. He’s a smart player that knows how to play, knows how to use his energy and athleticism the right way,” Middleton said of Jackson.</p><p>“They’ll get extended period of time to go out there and learn and grow. I think that can be really big going forward. You know, two athletic guys that can guard, man, and shoot the ball with confidence,” Portis added.</p><p>And with Jae Crowder out, those two should get plenty of burn in the coming months. Now it’s up to Andre Jackson Jr. and MarJon Beauchamp if they’ll <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/bucks-most-pleasant-surprise-2023-24-nba-season" rel="noopener">sink or swim</a>.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Thus, Jae Crowder, the combo forward who can knock down threes and defend multiple positions, started to play a bigger role to give the team more two-way balance. However, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/bucks-news-jae-crowder-gets-lengthy-injury-return-timeline-after-surgery" rel="noopener">Crowder will now be out</a> for a minimum of two months after undergoing surgery to repair the left adductor and abdominal tear he suffered.</p><p>At this point, it remains unclear just how long Crowder will be on the mend. But at the very least, the Bucks forward is in good spirits, <a href="https://twitter.com/CJC9BOSS/status/1724257969666216365" rel="noopener">looking forward to his eventual return</a> to the hardwood if the latest post on his official Twitter (X) account is any indication.</p><p>“ILL BE APPROACHING THIS OBSTACLE WITH THE SAME DRIVE &amp; DEDICATION I PUT INTO THE GAME. I LOOK FORWARD FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONTINUE BUILDING WITH MY TEAMMATES SOON. THANK YOU ALL FOR THE WELL WISHES &amp; TEXT MESSAGES.. 99 BACK SOON.! 🙏🏾🤞🏾💪🏾,” Crowder wrote.</p><p>Jae Crowder sustained the unfortunate injury during the Bucks’ Saturday night battle against the Orlando Magic. During that contest, Crowder played in just 17 minutes, tallying one point and two rebounds before exiting early.</p><p>Crowder was starting to play a more prominent role in the Bucks rotation, as the team was looking to put more defensively-inclined wings to help contain dribble penetration. The 6’8 wing was also getting more action to start the year as Khris Middleton is still working his way back to full fitness amid his minutes restriction. He was <a href="https://www.statmuse.com/nba/ask/jae-crowder-stats-october-26-2023-to-november-9-2023" rel="noopener">averaging 27.9 minutes</a> for the first eight games of the season, averaging 9.0 points, 4.1 rebounds, and two threes per game during that span.</p><p>With Crowder out for the foreseeable future, Malik Beasley and Pat Connaughton will have to be much better on the defensive end of the floor. There should be more minutes available for MarJon Beauchamp as well; <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/bucks-most-pleasant-surprise-2023-24-nba-season" rel="noopener">Beauchamp has shown flashes</a> of being an important two-way wing for the Bucks, although he is yet to put it together on a more consistent basis.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
