Timberwolves have an ideal trade target and he's not a point guard

Much of the potential trade talks surrounding the Timberwolves involve the team acquiring a point guard. That is understandable as it is a clear position of need, and an upgrade there would certainly raise Minnesota’s ceiling.

A less-talked about need is more production from the bench. Outside of Naz Reid, the Wolves are lacking a consistent nightly option to put up points from another reserve.

On Friday, Sam Vecenie of The Athletic posted an updated version of his NBA Trade Board for 2025-26. He mentions the Timberwolves as one of the best fits for Quentin Grimes, a player who would clearly help bolster the Timberwolves' bench.
