Going forward

[Monster]

I wouldn't have done the deal for Gobert but I'm ready to move on and see what we can do to go on the path Connelly has chosen.

The Wolves traded 5 players and brought back one. That opens up 4 roster spots. I know the Wolves gave up a lot but those roster spots could have value both for this season or in the future if the Wolves add some guys with youth/potential.

Needs:

PG depth seems like it could be bolstered. Here are guys that could provide some sort of minutes at that position.

Russell
McLaughlin
Edwards
Nowell
Moore
Anderson

Basically the Wolves have 5 guards right now. They went from having a bunch of them to 5 plus a couple guys like Anderson or McDaniels who can offer something on one end or the other in that respect. The Wolves could probably use another guy that can handle the ball and another shooter wouldn't hurt.

PF the Wolves are back to having 1 guy that's a PG in Anderson and he isn't a total classic PF either. With Gobert playing Prince or McDaniels is more ok but getting another guy that is more of a PF would be good. Bjelica for the vet min could be fun. Juancho/Bo Cruz is available! The kinda funny thing is that for the vet min he might be be worthwhile.

What guys available for the vet min or I guess the biannual exception would you be interested in getting? Are there some young guys you would like to take a flyer on? Maybe there is a young player we may not have signed otherwise that we can get now. I see the open roster spots as a possible opportunity to add a worthwhile player to the roster either now or as they develop.

I think he posted that after the fact! :D

Bryn Forbes would have been on my shortlist of guards, but we already scooped him up.

- Cody Martin
- Caleb Martin
- Tomas Satoransky
- Serge Ibaka
- Hassan Whiteside

We have made Nathan Knight a RFA. Where would you put him in that mix?

Based on his time in Milwaukee, Ibaka appears spent. They gave up Divencenzo for him and Serge couldn't even get off the bench.

I'm expecting he'll be back at this point. I think the staff likes him a lot. I'd include him on the roster for now.

RE: Serge Ibaka

Ibaka is coming off of a season in which he played 16.2 MPG over 54 games, basically solidifying himself as nothing more than a rotation player moving forward. He's no longer the athlete or shot-blocker that he was in his earlier years with Oklahoma City, but at 33-years old he's still a viable big on both ends of the floor. He made 37.4-percent of his three-point attempts last year on decent volume (37-99 3PA) and rebounded an estimated 22.2-percent of available defensive rebounds when he was on the floor, both of which are still very good. He'll also be over a full year removed from the back surgery that he had last summer, which may have contributed to his underwhelming season in relation to how he performed the prior year. And lastly, I don't think Ibaka will cost much. It's not sexy, but I think that would be an effective, low-risk addition.

Who are targets for the BAE? Or save it for next summer?
