Minnesota Timberwolves put everyone on the market... except for 2 players

The Minnesota Timberwolves were completely defeated by the Oklahoma City Thunder in the Western Conference Finals, losing the fifth game by 30 points. They certainly had a good run to get this far, but the Wolves will not sit idly by this summer.

Some of the changes in their roster may be out of their control, as defensive cornerstone Nickeil Alexander-Walker is an unrestricted free agent. Naz Reid, last season's Sixth Man of the Year, who has had an even better season this time, has a player option for $15 million that he is likely to turn down, becoming a highly sought-after unrestricted free agent.

Additionally, Julius Randle also has a player option for $30 million. The Wolves are almost tied down and need to bring Randle back, one way or another, after trading Karl Anthony-Towns for him.

But whatever the Timberwolves decide to do this summer, we can only be certain of one thing, well, two. According to Eddie Bitar at Fadeaway World, only two players on the Wolves are untouchable this offseason: Anthony Edwards (obviously) and Jaden McDaniels. Everything else, and everyone else, is on the table.

The Wolves' pillars that could depart this summer

McDaniels, a member of last year's All-NBA Defensive Team, improved in all aspects in 2024-25, and with four more seasons ahead on a five-year contract averaging $27 million annually, he's not going anywhere.

But that leaves a few big names that could be traded if the right offer comes along, like Rudy Gobert, Donte DiVincenzo, and even Randle, depending on how his player option or extension plays out. According to coach Chris Finch, increased ball-handling ability will be a priority in any trade or signing.

This is an automatic translation. You can read the original news, Minnesota Timberwolves pone a todo el mundo en el mercado... excepto 2 jugadores
