Waiting on a Jaden McDaniels extension + Shake Milton as the Timberwolves' backup point guard

Jrue Holiday not an option for the Minnesota Timberwolves + Wolves sign Tyrese Martin: In the wake of the Damian Lillard trade on Wednesday, it's time to talk about whether the Minnesota Timberwolves could be an option for Jrue Holiday after he landed with the un-competitive Portland Trail Blazers. Ben Beecken (@bbeecken) argues why it's extremely unlikely that Holiday ends up in Minnesota, primarily from an asset management and timing standpoint. But also, Mike Conley is a perfect fit for the Wolves. Additionally, the Timberwolves made yet another training camp signing, bringing in former Atlanta Hawks guard Tyrese Martin.
