Keep in mind: Hardly anyone had connected Kyle Anderson to Minnesota ahead of his MLE signing.

I personally want to keep an eye on Darius Bazley.

LeVert is talented, but I don't trust him to be available when we need him.

That’s the only reason he’s even a possibility for us at MLE money though.

That is true.

I'll predict
NAW
TJ Warren
Kendrick Nunn

Wolves bet on two guys that will be two years removed from major injuries

I have to believe if they target a power forward/center there is a trade coming. Otherwise, I look to see them add a 3&D wing with length and a 3&D type of combo guard. That second unit is definitely going to need a scorer though.

PGs Carter, Smith, Baton
SGs Brown Jr, Davis
SF Reddish, Bazley

Actually started to think this way too. Wondering if we could get two lower tier guys and NAW even. Carter a perfect example of this.

I mean ideally, if we could sign Carter for 7, NAW for 5, and I would love to land either Bazley or Reddish as well. I might be getting greedy

Reddish and Bazley are two of my favorites too!

The way it is looking we are probably trying for an off-season like this. I think the names are pretty endless in this catagory. I just wonder if we have determined we might struggle getting a backup PG based on the market.

I would say McDaniels' brother could be on the list as well.

We need a backup point guard. No doubt. We also need a backup shooting guard, can't disagree. As for the small forward position, I would like to at least sign somebody in the event that Minot isn't ready. Now Reddish is definitely a 2/3 Bazley may be more of a 3/4.

I would be low key stoked if we went Smith Jr, Reddish, and Bazley

Conley, Smith Jr, McClaughlin
Edwards, Reddish, Moore Jr
McDaniels, Bazley, Minott
Towns, Anderson, Miller
Gobert, Reid, Garza (though I would off Jaxon Hayes the same deal as Garza and see)

I am a little surprised they didn’t try to buy low on Duarte? Unless the kings paid a first rounder for him.

I do wonder if Connelly still likes RJ Hampton.

I’m curious what D’Angelo Russell’s next contract looks like?

My guess? NAW (3 for $16), Prince (2 for $12) and .. Javon Carter (3 for $16)

Luka on a two-way

Caris Levert was strongly rumored to us and is one of the first signed, returning back to Cleveland at 2 year 32 million.

Good.

Prince signing with the Lakers

Hope wolves move on from Prince we know what he can do, and we need to try someone different. He misses too many games and has been a negative two playoffs in a row.

This is what I also had in mind. Run it back together and they're back on more cap friendly deals

Swing and a miss.

Free agent forward Taurean Prince is finalizing a deal with the Los Angeles Lakers, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium.

All signs point to Nickeil Alexander-Walker remaining in Minnesota, league sources tell @TheAthletic. Optimism all around that a deal is nearing.

And it's done: Nickeil Alexander-Walker has agreed to terms on a two-year deal with the Timberwolves, league sources tell @TheAthletic.

Always find time to get that last whiff in, in the closing seconds!
