Ranking Minnesota Timberwolves' Biggest 2015 NBA Draft Needs

As the Minnesota Timberwolves approach the 2015 NBA draft with the No. 1 overall pick in hand, they have a bevy of deficiencies to address.

The 2014 Kevin Love trade landed them a bunch of young assets, but they still need another sizable influx of talent in order to eventually reach the playoffs.

Point guard Ricky Rubio now has some explosive running mates in Andrew Wiggins and Zach LaVine, and veterans Kevin Martin and Nikola Pekovic are returning. Sprinkle in promising youngsters Gorgui Dieng and Shabazz Muhammad, and you have the beginnings of a dangerous core.
