Timberwolves to draft a Gator?

"It's a strong bet that one of three Florida players - 6-foot-10 Al Horford, 6-9 Corey Brewer or 6-11 Joakim Noah,left, - will be the Timberwolves' top pick at No. 7 in the June 28 NBA draft. The Wolves were especially impressed with Noah's energy during a recent workout. If the Wolves choose Brewer, they will trade Trenton Hassell." Joakim Noah sounds like the pick at #7 if he's still on the board as the TWolves need a big to pair with Garnett. He plays with the same passion and energy as KG and though he doesn't have the bulk or post offense that the TWolves would probably like, he's more ready to contribute than Spencer Hawes who could also be picked at #7. Brewer is less likely as they still have Ricky Davis and their young backcourt duo of Randy Foye and Rashad McCants but he'll be a strong consideration if Noah is off the board.
