NBA Market: Kyle Anderson returns to Minnesota Timberwolves

NBA Market: Kyle Anderson, an 11-season NBA veteran, had a brief return to the Memphis Grizzlies: just four games before his contract was terminated through a buyout. Immediately after, Anderson signed a new deal with another team where he already played a prominent role, the Minnesota Timberwolves.

The player, known for his slow style which earned him the nickname "Slow-Mo," had been an important part of the Minnesota rotation during the 2022-23 and 2023-24 seasons. His return will allow him to contribute to the fight for securing home-court advantage in the Western Conference playoffs.

During his brief stint with the Grizzlies, Anderson averaged 9.3 points and 3.5 rebounds in four games, after playing 20 games previously with the Utah Jazz, where he recorded 7.1 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 3.1 assists per game, with a 52% field goal percentage.

Anderson's arrival in Minnesota marks his fifth franchise in two seasons. This year, he started with the Golden State Warriors, was traded to the Miami Heat, then played for Utah and Memphis before returning to the Timberwolves.

Extensive career in the league

Drafted in the first round of the 2014 Draft by the San Antonio Spurs, Anderson began his career there before establishing himself in Memphis for four seasons. His initial stint with Minnesota included participation in the team's run to the Conference Finals in 2024, standing out as a "point forward" with a calm and methodical pace that aids in playmaking.
