The training camp roster is set for the Minnesota Timberwolves.
We’re less than a month away from the start of the NBA season, which means media day and training camps are here.
The Minnesota Timberwolves enter the season with high expectations after making big offseason moves that addressed some weaknesses, but have left gaps in other areas.
On Sunday, the Timberwolves released their training camp roster for the upcoming season.
Full roster:
LaMelo Ball, Joan Beringer, Jaylen Clark, Donte DiVincenzo, Ayo Dosumu, Anthony Edwards, Isaiah Evans, Rudy Gobert, Bones Hyland, Jonathan Kuminga Trey Lyles, KJ Martin, Jaden McDaniels, Norchad Omier, Antonio Reeves, Terrence Shannon Jr, Drew Timme, Cody Williams, Enrique Freeman, Zyon Pullin, and Rocco Zikarsky.
Freeman, Pullin, and Zikarsky are on two-way deals.
Teams can carry 15 players on a standard contract and three players on two-way deals.
The Guaranteed Spots
Ball, Edwards, McDaniels, Kuminga, and Gobert are the starters and guaranteed to be on the team.
Dosunmu, Evans, Beringer, Clark, DiVincenzo, Hyland, Lyles, Shannon Jr, and Williams are all under contract and it would be surprising if those nine players weren’t on the opening night roster.
That leaves one roster spot for Reaves, Omier, Timme, and Martin.
Jesse Johnson-Imagn ImagesWho Makes The Cut?
The Wolves have a strong group of guards with Edwards, Ball, Dosunmu, Clark, Hyland, Evans and Shannon Jr.
Williams can also play the two-guard spot and DiVincenzo will be one of the first players off the bench when he returns for his Achilles injury suffered in the first round of the playoffs.
Their forward group leaves a lot to be desired.
Kuminga was signed late in the offseason to be the starting power forward; otherwise, Minnesota risked starting Lyles in that spot. He spent last season in the EuroLeague, transforming himself into a stretch four, but it remains to be seen if his game can translate back to the NBA, where he was a below-average three-point shooter in his ten seasons.
Freeman got some experience with the Timberwolves last season and though Martin wasn’t in the league last season, he played for the Philadelphia 76ers and Utah Jazz in 2024-25, playing over 20 minutes a game and averaging 8.6 points, four rebounds, and 1.2 assists.
Timme played for the Los Angeles Lakers last season, appearing in 27 games and averaging 3.4 points, 1.2 rebounds, and 0.9 assists, but shot 44% from three, albeit on less than one attempt per game.
The safe bet is to say that one of the forwards will get the final roster spot given Minnesota’s need for big bodies compared to their already deep group at the guard position.
