Minnesota Timberwolves, Taurean Prince agree to 2-year, $16 million contract extension, sources say

Minnesota Timberwolves forward Taurean Prince has agreed on a two-year, $16 million contract extension, sources told ESPN on Tuesday.

Prince established himself as a solid rotational player on a Timberwolves team that returned to the Western Conference playoffs this past season, averaging 7.3 points and 2.5 rebounds a game in 17 minutes.

Prince landed with the Timberwolves after playing parts of the 2020-21 season with the Brooklyn Nets and Cleveland Cavaliers. Prince could have entered free agency, but joins guard Patrick Beverley in signing extensions ahead of the offseason.
