Minnesota Timberwolves: Consensus Draft Selection
Doug McDermott, F, Creighton
Another guy who I looked at earlier, McDermott would get a long, hard look if he drops to the Wolves in the draft.
He fills a variety of needs: long-range shooter, versatile forward, and bench scorer come to mind off the top of my head. What he does not do is make this team better defensively, but I am not sure how big of a priority that is at this point in time.
Adding McBuckets to the roster give the fan base a splash if nothing else, and would be pretty exciting to see if he can develop into anything close to the scorer he was at the collegiate level. He also, in the worst case scenario, gives the Wolves a shooter who can stretch the defense and take some pressure off the primary scorers.
