The Timberwolves had two separate media availability sessions this week, underscoring the rapid pace of the NBA offseason.
On Tuesday, they introduced first-round pick Josh Okogie and second-rounder Keita Bates-Diop, with head coach/President of Basketball Operations Tom Thibodeau and GM Scott Layden also there to field questions.
Two days later, Thibodeau and Layden again took questions – this time to address free agency, which begins this weekend.
The two things are intertwined, of course, as they present two of the ways (in addition to trades and internal development, among others) the Wolves can improve on last year’s 47-35 record.
