Minnesota Timberwolves: Evaluating Juancho Hernangomez's first 11 games

The Minnesota Timberwolves acquired Juan Hernangomez from the Denver Nuggets in part of a four-team deal at the NBA Trade Deadline. Since the team has added him to the roster, he has played in 11 games and has looked like a good long-term fit.

Much like Malik Beasley, another player the Wolves were able to acquire in a deal from the Nuggets, Hernangomez was at the back end of a deep roster. There wasn't much room for him to blossom and play, which resulted in him not reaching his full potential.

Hernangomez was the 15th pick in the 2016 NBA Draft and has been waiting for this kind of opportunity.
