The Wolves made a few roster moves Saturday — the most notable being waiving Rondae Hollis-Jefferson, a source said.
Hollis-Jefferson, who had signed a training camp contract, had impressed in the preseason. The move comes as a bit of surprise given how Hollis-Jefferson had played, but the Wolves wanted to maintain roster flexibility with an open slot to make trades in the future. Cutting Hollis-Jefferson allows them to do that while not counting a salary toward the luxury tax threshold, and the Wolves are still under that but close to it as the season approaches.
Hollis-Jefferson scored 17 points on 6 of 6 shooting in the Wolves' game against Memphis on Monday.
