NBA Trade Deadline: Grading how all 30 teams performed at the deadline
Minnesota Timberwolves
Key Moves:
N/A
It wasn’t imperative that the Minnesota Timberwolves make a move at the NBA Trade Deadline, but there was an opportunity for this team to really begin to thin out their roster and cut bait on some players that won’t be part of the team’s big picture.
Instead of doing so, the Wolves didn’t make a move at the deadline. In fairness, this team made a fairly big move at the start of the season, so it’s not like this team didn’t do anything to fix their issue all season long.
Still, it’s a bit disappointing that the team didn’t try to get off of Jeff Teague‘s contract at the deadline. The Wolves will likely fall short of their playoff bid, and will be back to the drawing board next year.
Grade: C-
