Timberwolves have choice to make with no consensus No. 1 overall pick
Almost from the moment the Timberwolves got the top pick in Wednesday's NBA draft, President Gersson Rosas has tried to temper the expectations that go along with such an asset.
"We're not praying this guy is a franchise piece," Rosas said the day after the Wolves won the lottery. "We're not praying that this guy is our No. 1 player."
Rosas' point was that the Wolves already have their top franchise players in center Karl-Anthony Towns and guard D'Angelo Russell.
