Timberwolves still trying to answer the Nickeil-Alexander Walker question
Charlotte Hornets v Atlanta Hawks | Todd Kirkland/GettyImagesThis offseason, the Timberwolves had decisions to make on three key free agents. The expectation is that it would be highly unlikely to re-sign all three of them. Minnesota agreed to long-term deals with Naz Reid and Julius Randle. The other notable free agent, Nickeil Alexander-Walker, left for the Hawks.
Through their first 16 games, the question as to who would be the main replacement for Alexander-Walker this season remains unanswered.
Haven't seen much improvement from Rob Dillingham and Terrence Shannon Jr.
