Tim Connelly set for first draft night as Timberwolves president

Ever since Tim Connelly took the Wolves president of basketball operations job, moving from Denver, he has been living out of a hotel, searching for a new home for his family and talking for hours and hours about the NBA draft.

That day is finally here, and the Timberwolves have four picks (Nos. 19, 40, 48, 50). Discussions will cease, and Connelly will have to make his first significant decisions as the new Wolves boss on the league's most hectic day.

"It's the one night a year where you feel like you're actually doing your job as a front office guy," Connelly said Wednesday.
