Minnesota Timberwolves

Current Picks: 5

This team is stacked. Solid at pretty much at positions and backup positions except PG and SG, they will look to snag a quality guard at No. 5. Basically the only player they would pass would be Dragan Bender who most believe to be top 5 draft selection. The Wolves do not technically have a backup SG on their depth chart.

Zach Lavine is currently the only SG, and it seem as though the Wolves prefer to play in with the second unit. The perfect scenario for the Wolves is that Jamal Murray is still available. Murray as the size, strength, shooting, and ball-handling that an NBA PG or SG needs. If Murray finds his way to Minnesota, the Wolves immediately because one of the most intriguing teams.

Team Needs: PG, SG

Players available at 5: Jaylen Brown, Jamal Murray, Buddy Hield, or Kris Dunn

Next: Atlanta Hawks
