Summary

On today’s show, Britt Robson of The Athletic joins to discuss the Timberwolves offseason outlook now that we know they will not have their first round pick in July’s draft. That variable being removed hones the focus on the 12 players currently under contract for next season and makes ideas about how to adjust the roster more direct. We discuss: The caliber of this Wolves team if they make no meaningful additions to the roster prior to next season What archetype of added big might bring out the most from this roster — using Myles Turner, Ben Simmons and John Collins as examples of three archetypes What Britt would be willing to give up for Ben Simmons versus what Dane would be willing to give up Create a BetUS account with promo code "Dane125" at: https://bit.ly/DaneMooreBetUS Sign up for Dane's Patreon ($5 a month) at: Patreon.com/DaneMooreNBA Learn more about your ad choices.
