The first round of the 2026 NBA Draft is in the books. The Timberwolves didn't make a selection, as they traded the No. 28 pick to the Brooklyn Nets in the Julius Randle deal on Monday night.
The Minnesota Timberwolves recently made an interesting move, basically salary-dumping their second-best player, Julius Randle. This came after their season was cut short in the playoffs, as they lost in six games to the San Antonio Spurs.
There is a new man at the helm for the Portland Trail Blazers after they hired Micah Nori as coach on Tuesday. Nori got his break after serving as an assistant coach of the Minnesota Timberwolves from 2021 until this season.
Timberwolves head coach Chris Finch spoke to reporters in Minnesota during the first night of the 2026 NBA Draft on Tuesday. Finch isn't allowed to comment on transactions that aren't yet official, like Monday night's Julius Randle trade or the new five-year contract for Ayo Dosunmu.
The Ant Man will not be looking for a new colony any time soon. Minnesota Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards is not actually unhappy with the team, Chris Hine of the Minnesota Star Tribune reported on Tuesday.
Could Anthony Edwards be the next NBA superstar to seek a trade? A couple of prominent ESPN insiders speculated about that possibility during the latest episode of the Hoop Collective podcast (Twitter video link).
The NBA is truly a global league. As such, there have been historical impacts left on the game by players of all walks of life. Some of the game's all-time
Happy NBA Draft Day, hoop fans! The past 24 hours have been crazy as multiple blockbuster trades have been completed ahead of one of the biggest days on the NBA calendar.
The Minnesota Timberwolves are expected to resign guard Ayo Dosunmu to a five-year $112 million extension according to ESPN’s Shams Charania. The deal comes one day after the Timberwolves dealt forward Julius Randle in a three team trade involving the Brooklyn Nets and Chicago Bulls.
The Minnesota Timberwolves kicked off the offseason with a blockbuster trade that made a lot of fans scratch their heads. They gave up the 28th overall pick in the first round of the 2026 NBA Draft, just to get off of Julius Randle’s contract.
Anthony Edwards has watched the Minnesota Timberwolves strip away key pieces of his championship puzzle for three straight summers. The front office first moved on from Karl Anthony Towns in 2024, despite his seamless fit alongside Ant.
Was trading Julius Randle and re-signing Ayo Dosunmu the only big moves Tim Connelly and the Timberwolves are going to make? "The Wolves created a lot more flexibility to make other moves," Wolves beat reporter Jon Krawczynski told Chad Hartman on WCCO Radio on Tuesday afternoon.

The Karl-Anthony Towns trade looked bad for the Minnesota Timberwolves when their former star won an NBA championship with the New York Knicks. It looked even worse when the team got negative value for Julius Randle.
Guard Ayo Dosunmu bypassed free agency to stay with the Minnesota Timberwolves on a five-year, $112 million contract, multiple outlets reported Tuesday.
The Minnesota Timberwolves have barely had time to process the Julius Randle blockbuster before a new wave of speculation is already crashing down around them, and this time, it centers on their most prized possession, Anthony Edwards.
The Timberwolves have made their first big moves of the offseason. Julius Randle was essentially traded to Brooklyn in a salary dump, and Ayo Dosunmu is re-signing with the team on a five-year, $112 million deal.
This three-team NBA deal between the Minnesota Timberwolves, Brooklyn Nets, and Chicago Bulls looks on the surface like one of those modern NBA “cap gymnastics” trades where everybody claims a win.
Free agent Ayo Dosunmu is returning to the Timberwolves on a five-year, $112MM contract, reports Shams Charania of ESPN (via Twitter). The final season is a player option, Charania adds.
Jaden McDaniels out of the Minnesota Timberwolves? That won’t happen until some really big superstars sign with the Wolves. As of now, Minnesota has emerged as a contender in the Western Conference.
