Minnesota Timberwolves draft profile: Jayson Tatum

Possessing the body of an NBA wing straight out of Central Casting, Jayson Tatum has found himself perched near the top of most expert’s draft boards for over a year.

Tatum’s versatility and athleticism are intriguing skills for NBA general managers. The Dunking With Wolves Big Board features Tatum as the second best Wolves’ prospect.

The one-and-done swingman from Duke would be a welcome addition to the exciting young Timberwolves squad. However, he may not be the player who addresses the team’s most obvious weaknesses.

After an early season ankle injury, Tatum came back to solidify himself as the best player on an underachieving Duke squad.
