Calling all Timberwolves fans – represent your team in the 2025 RealGM Mock Draft! 

Post#1 » by durantbird » Tue Jun 17, 2025 11:08 am

The 2025 RealGM Mock Draft kicks off on June 21 at 9:00 AM EDT, and the Minnesota Timberwolves are still unclaimed.

This is a no-trades mock where each GM controls one team and makes its draft picks. You’ll be making real-time selections with a 4-hour pick clock (paused overnight). Just show up, draft well, and rep your squad.

To claim the Timberwolves:
  1. Post in the signup thread: 2025 NBA Mock Draft – Signups Thread
  2. Add your name and team on the Google Sheet linked in the first post.

The draft is almost here—come claim Minnesota and make sure they’re represented by someone who knows their stuff!

Good, glad you did. If it was left up to me, I'd probably pick Johnny Flynn 2.0 :oops:
Your 2026-2027 NBA Champions!! :D

4 picks to go. Queen, Jase Richardson, Demin and Sorber available. I predicted Queen might slide in the real draft. He's sliding in this mock. I think I pass if he falls. Hopefully, Demin or Richardson are available. I'm too nervous about taking Sorber. I know Richardson is small and iffy as a PG, but I got a vibe about him. Maybe our worst selection since Doody Peepee.

Questions?
Feel free to ask in the discussion thread.

Looking forward to a great mock. Let’s get started.

In case of any unclarities during the draft, the commissioner will help mediate.

If Queen seriously drops to us at 17, you punch anyone you need to in the face to get that card up to the podium.

He is immensely gifted as a raw offensive player but does require development and maturity.

I watched Richardson play a ton at MSU and he was far too often underwhelming. He's tiny, too.

Demin's height is fool's gold but I understand the desire to have a big PG. However, we desperately need a guy that can shoot the rock next to Ant.

Do the unthinkable and shock the world, KG...Walter Clayton Jr at 17!!! :)

We greatly disagree. Queen seems like a total 100% bum to me. Richardson is tiny, but I got a vibe. 6'9.5" PGs just don't come around very often. WCJ is too old.

I think I'd be debating between Demin and Queen. Unless you have a read on Reid and/or Randle leaving in free agency, I think I would slightly lean Demin.

Essengue at 7 and Noah Penda at 15 are quite a reach, but it means that Niederhauser, Kalkbrenner, Powell, Thiero and Yang are all available at 31.
