Timberwolves set to give point guard Mike Conley a two-year extension

A festering question for the Timberwolves since they traded for Mike Conley a season ago was about the team's long-term plan at point guard.

Conley, after all, is 36 and was in the final season of his contract.

The answer to that question, at least for the next two years, is Conley.

The veteran point guard agreed to a two-year deal for $20.75 million, sources confirmed.

Conley's leadership and steady hand guiding the offense, especially in late-game situations, have helped the Wolves reach the top of the Western Conference standings at the All-Star break.

He is in his 17th NBA season since he was selected fourth overall in the 2007 draft out of Ohio State by the Memphis Grizzlies.
