The Timberwolves' preseason wrapped up on Friday, and while it was generally a success, not everyone walked away covered in glory.
We learned a lot about the Timberwolves in preseason, however, not every relevant question was answered.
Naz Reid hasn't looked fully comfortable in Charlotte this preseason. For a player who spent years in Minnesota, adapting to a new team may take time.
Currently, there's some understandable concern about the Timberwolves' bench. Thankfully, Donte DiVincenzo is poised to return at some point this season.
Jonathan Kuminga showed why Minnesota brought him in, stepping up offensively when the Timberwolves’ biggest stars struggled to find their rhythm.
Preseason is showing that Jaylen Clark is unlikely to be part of the Timberwolves' rotation, and Minnesota might miss his POA defense.
Jaden McDaniels is eligible to sign a two-year extension for up to $87 million.
With limited options on the wing, the Timberwolves may need Cody Williams sooner than expected. His defensive upside could help him carve out a role.
Antonio Reeves looks to be the better option for a two-way contract with the Timberwolves due to his 3-point shooting ability.
Both Julius Randle and Jonathan Kuminga have similar flaws. However, since Kuminga is a complementary player, not a star, his flaws will be negated.
The Timberwolves were tied for the most fun team to watch this season, according to NBA GMs, and it's easy to see why.
Zyon Pullin may force the Minnesota Timberwolves to consider calling his number this season.
Terrence Shannon Jr.'s strengths don't line up with what the Timberwolves need this season. As such, his minutes could be squeezed, and he could be traded.
In the NBA's annual GM survey, the Timberwolves are the third-best team in the Western Conference.
Jaden McDaniels’ scoring has taken a noticeable leap this preseason, and if that growth carries over, he could become a dark horse for Most Improved Player.
