At the dawn of August, the Minnesota Timberwolves made (minor) headlines with a pair of signings as first reported by ESPN’s Shams Charania.
Let’s start with Johnny Juzang. First off, let’s address the fact that he now becomes the first Vietnamese player to sign with the Timberwolves. He identifies as Creole-Vietnamese and that is something I’m personally very excited about. I did a brief dive on Juzang as a draft prospect prior to the 2022 NBA draft in case you missed it.
As a basketball player, Juzang has carved a role out for himself with the Utah Jazz in the past three seasons despite going undrafted.
