The Timberwolves are still active in the market and make a new move by recovering Austin Rivers to complete their back lines. “Combo guard” of experience, free of any commitment, the son of Doc Rivers has signed up for a season, for an amount still undisclosed. Probably for minimum wage.
In the wake of Tim Connelly, who arrived this summer from the Nuggets to preside over the Wolves, but also from Bryn Forbes, he arrives from Denver where he failed to make up for the absence of Jamal Murray, at the end of the 2020-2021 season then this season, with 67 games on the clock.
Offensive Joker, Rivers digitally replaces Patrick Beverley, and he will be D’Angelo Russell’s understudy. And apparently, he is very, very happy!
WOLVES OFF-SEASON
Disorganized : Wendell Moore Jr.
Extensions : Jaylen Nowell, Naz Reid, Karl-Anthony Towns
rookies Kyle Anderson (Grizzlies), Rudy Gobert (Jazz), Bryn Forbes (Nuggets), Austin Rivers (Nuggets)
Departures : Walker Kessler, Malik Beasley, Patrick Beverley, Walker Kessler, Leandro Bolmaro and Jarred Vanderbilt (Jazz)
I wanted to live in Minneapolis since mighty ducks! Where Charlie Conway at?… let’s make the connection.
