Timberwolves Film Room: Using Josh Okogie Right It’s been a tough season for Okogie, but a shift in offensive role has seen him flourish recently. Jesse Johnson-USA TODAY Sports Josh Okogie’s game is like a temperamental flower — the one that needs just a little bit more attention to reach its full potential. Too much sun and it wilts under the heat, but not enough, and its growth is stagnated, drooping all the same. However, if you can find it the perfect living spot and strike the perfect balance, the bloom is well worth the bother. Just like our hypothetical plant, the on-court version of Okogie is volatile. Defensively, it doesn’t take much motivation or instruction to wind him up and send him off to gnaw at the heels of opposition ball-handlers like a chattering teeth toy, but he has found settling into his niche much harder on the other side of the ball. By the end of Ryan Saunders’ tenure as head coach, the 22-year-old’s unreliable shooting and overall offensive woes had him playing under 10 minutes a night.
