Timberwolves ready to show restraint at this NBA draft

The subject of D'Angelo Russell's future is quite possibly the earliest significant obstacle for the Timberwolves' new President of Basketball Operation Tim Connelly. Each draft turns into a quest for change, rather than a basic course of picking the most ideal that anyone could hope to find the player. On Thursday Draft night, the Wolves have the nineteenth pick in the draft, in addition to three second-rounders.

A good time for them to reflect on the time when, Tim Connelly, chose Nikola Jokic with the 41st pick in the 2014 draft. Wolves could use a point guard in their roster if they decide to trade away D'Angelo Russell but one thing is certain at the 19th pick a player would not start contributing right away but would need to be nurtured.
