Help Wanted: In Search of a Unicorn
Posted: Wed Feb 25, 2026 1:13 pm
The Timberwolves are an exciting professional basketball franchise with an awesome opportunity for an ambitious unicorn that can play point guard.
Here is the job description:
- Captain a ball and player-movement half court offense with constant cutting and quick decisions.
- Single-handedly raise the Basketball IQ of the group of players he's playing with while on the floor, especially Anthony Edwards.
- Effectively guard the opposing team's best perimeter player so that Jaden McDaniels can roam more on defense and take on more usage on offense.
- Push the pace in transition to get easy baskets. Strong preference for a high-rebounding PG that can grab-and-go!
- Hit open 3's at a rate of 37% or higher so that teams are punished for doubling or providing heavy gap help on Anthony Edwards.
- Be able to create offense off the dribble out of pick and roll actions and when all else breaks down, especially when Anthony Edwards is off the floor or needs a break.
- Has the ability to throw precise, feathery passes to a tall Center with hands of stone that can be caught, secured, and converted.
- Shows a high level of intensity and effort, i.e. a high motor player.
- Limit turnovers since the fanbase is tired of Ant and Julius's sometimes sloppy handles, with an assist to TO ratio of at least 3:1.
- Do all of the above for a competitive salary no higher than the price of Julius Randle.
You can send your applications to the following address:

. Are there any current PGs who check most of the boxes? I mentioned Cade Cunningham, but obviously he’s not realistic trade option for the Wolves or any other team.
