Timberwolves should consider a deadline reunion with guard they gave up on too soon

Related Topics: Minnesota Timberwolves

It's far from a secret that the Minnesota Timberwolves will be in the market for a point guard ahead of the trade deadline. Of course, many of the rumors ahead of the February 5 deadline will be around big names. Nevertheless, a role player could be just as impactful, and there's arguably no better-fitting role player than Kris Dunn.

The Wolves drafted Dunn with the No. 5 pick in 2016. Dunn had a slow start to his career, and Minnesota traded him after just one season as part of the Jimmy Butler trade. The Providence College product is the definition of a late bloomer; he didn't truly find his niche in the NBA until last season with the Los Angeles Clippers.
