Timberwolves likely won't be big players as NBA free agency begins

Last week, the Timberwolves traded back from the No. 19 spot in the NBA draft and wound up with two first-round picks in Walker Kessler and Wendell Moore.

That means for next season, the Wolves are investing an extra roster spot to carry two first-round picks instead of just settling for one.

Then before free agency opened Thursday night, the Wolves answered one of the questions they had relative to their few remaining roster spots. They agreed to terms with forward Taurean Prince on a two-year deal. The club also announced late Wednesday the pickup of team options on guard Jaylen Nowell and center Naz Reid.
