Veteran shooting guard?

Found December 19, 2011 on Timberwolves Central:
PLAYERS: John Salmons,  Keith Bogans,  Bonzi Wells
TEAMS: Sacramento Kings,  Chicago Bulls,  Minnesota Timberwolves

96350255
I was looking at Sacramento's roster, and they currently have Thornton, and Tyreke Evans listed at shooting guard. My question is would anyone have any interest in John Salmons if we could get him without giving up much. He plays decent d, can score in a variety of ways, has playoff experience etc. Would he be a good fit for this Wolves roster. Of course with Barea at shooting guard there may not be a ton of minutes for him, but I think he could be a nice addition to our backcourt. I also saw Chicago released Keith Bogans. Personally I'm not that excited about him, but would be a possibility? Does Bonzi Wells fill that role?
