Seth is gone to the blazers for the minimum.

I think brewer is the most attainable. We know what he brings to the table and we know he is comfortable in minnesota. He's my pick, unless people are more interested in beasley and tolliver carressing knees on the bench


That's a decent list. I don't see the need for the PG so i wouldn't go with Ennis even though I like him. Beasley doesn't shoot many 3's so that makes it easier to pass on him and he is more of a stretch PF. So is Babbitt but he actually jacks 3's up. Honestly I would probably just go with Brewer it just feels like having a true Wing that can just play against a bunch of different guys would have value. I think there are some other attainable guys like Treveon Graham and Cunningham I'd take over Brewer.


Monster --- I don't think Cunningham makes sense not that we have Tolliver. I'm intrigued by Trevon Graham. What do you like about him?


I like he played legit rotation minutes. He shot the 3 well but not at high volume. CAMELO has him as a positive player in terms of money the last 2 seasons. He just looks the part of a 3 and D guy. He is 25. Maybe he isn't that great but he seems like a guy with that role player potential. Hornets fans and plenty of other fans seems to say positive things about him. The problem is he seems like a guy the Rockets would snatch up.

As for Dante I think he can play SOME 3. He actually looks like he slimmed down (less ripped) and ultimately he probably plays some with Tolliver off the bench and they would be sorta versatile that way. If I remember right 82games numbers showed (small sample) he was more effective at SF for NO when he played there. I'd rather have a true wing than Dante but if we could get him for the min I'd be pretty happy with that. He is a legit NBA player.

I third Connaughton. He's a pretty tough dude too. Seems to be improving and earning more minutes with experience. Not a big time 3-ball threat, but I think he would be more of an outside threat than Brewer with more upside since he's still relatively inexperienced in the NBA.

He is a guy I've been intruiged with for a while and he took a big step forward this season. If we somehow got him for the vet min I would be thrilled. It seems like he is a guy that might get just a bit more or if that's al he gets goes to a team that has a bigger role for him. It's puzzling why the Blazers didn't want to bring him back for very little money relatively speaking.

Nwaba is a guy I like also (even though he can't shoot) but since the Bulls offered him a qualifying offer I would imagine we aren't going to be able to get him.

He made Bobby Marks list of "some key free agents"! The other Shabazz likely has more value around the league.

Not a lot in terms of wings that the Wolves need on that list but there are probably a couple guys to consider that he didn't mention.

Ellington would be awesome, but I assume he will garner a heck of a lot more than the vet minimum.
