Minnesota Timberwolves

Key additions: Jarrett Culver 

Key subtractions: Dario Saric 

Perhaps not a preference, but the Minnesota Timberwolves have been relatively quiet throughout most of the summer. They did make a big move at the NBA Draft, to move up to select Jarrett Culver with the 6th pick.

They were reportedly in on D’Angelo Russell before he elected to a sign-and-trade with the Warriors, and Russell Westbrook but ultimately the Wolves elected to stand pat and continue down this path with Karl-Anthony Towns and Andrew Wiggins.

The direction is still very much a question, but the hope is that this team’s young talent can blossom into a solid core soon.
