NBA Mock Draft Sees Timberwolves Pick Georgia Forward Asa Newell originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Minnesota Timberwolves are weighing their options as the 2025 NBA Draft approaches, with considerations about how they'll improve the roster for future playoff runs.

Timberwolves head coach Chris Finch gave a clear response regarding Julius Randle and Naz Reid's future with the team.

Timberwolves guard Jaylen Clark spent time at the National Sports Center in Blaine on Tuesday afternoon coaching youth basketball players. KSTP Sports was there and spoke with Clark after the event.

The Minnesota Timberwolves are contemplating which members of their playoff-ready roster will stay and go for next season. Among the names mentioned in free agency situations and trade rumors are Rudy Gobert, Naz Reid, and Julius Randle.

The Thunder are up, 3-2, against the Indiana Pacers after back-to-back wins. Jalen Williams and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander combined for 71 points in a Game 5 win on Monday night. The Thunder are back in the NBA Finals for the first time since 2012 after eliminating the Minnesota Timberwolves in five games in the Western Conference finals.

The NBA superstar hasn't indicated any plans about when he'll retire from basketball, but one of his Lakers teammates has his thoughts on LeBron James' future.

Timberwolves head coach Chris Finch though was adamant Tuesday that Minnesota would retain the two prized free-agents-to-be, telling reporters he "absolutely" expected Randle and Reid to don Wolves uniforms when the 2025-26 season tips off.

The Minnesota Timberwolves have reportedly been the most aggressive team in trade talks for Kevin Durant. That may be why Durant is being so vocal about not going there.
