Host Michael Rand starts with a disappointing Wolves loss to Sacramento, which had just traded away point guard De’Aaron Fox. Instead of getting back on track against a weakened opponent, the Wolves dropped their second straight home game. Do they miss Julius Randle that much? Did Sacramento just play a really good game? A little of both is the answer.

9:00: Star Tribune Vikings writer Andrew Krammer joins Rand for a look at the three biggest offseason questions facing the Vikings: What will they do at quarterback? When (and with what terms) is GM Kwesi Adofo-Mensah going to sign a contract extension? And what do the Vikings think they can be in 2025?

40:00: Ryan Hartman leaving the Wild short-handed.
