John Meyer: D'Angelo Russell says Minnesota "felt like home right away." "As a group, the atmosphere is going to be amazing." "D'Angelo was always one of the toughest guys [to gameplan for]," says Saunders. "He made the dream come true," says D-Lo, about Rosas.

Twitter

John Meyer: D'Angelo Russell: "Players come and go from here. ... Watching from a distance, I knew I could help Karl. ... I've never played with a player of [his] caliber. "I think the sky's the limit with this. I'm super excited." D-Lo says this is a surreal moment and a dream come true.

John Meyer: Juancho Hernangómez: "We have to help [Towns] the same way we helped Joker." Malik Beasley says KAT reminds him a little bit of Jokic. "For him to be a great player, we have to be great players, too."

Twitter

John Meyer: L2M (last two minute) Report says "Fox (SAC) enters the lane prior to the shot hitting the rim." Ruling = Incorrect Non-Call *It's not like we couldn't see that almost immediately after on replay* But I guess they can't overturn that which baffles me.

Twitter

John Meyer: Keita Bates-Diop, Jaylen Nowell, and Naz Reid have been assigned to the Iowa Wolves.

Twitter

John Meyer: Jordan Bell: "The main reason I came here was for opportunity." Being around Draymond was key for him & he wants to bring championship knowledge to MN. Also says: "Nowadays, you don't really find coaches you can relate to." Him & Ryan talked about Drake in Vegas for example lol.

Twitter

John Meyer: A couple other quotes from Rosas: "Whenever a big name player becomes available, people should talk about the Timberwolves." + "We have shots on our roster right now to have that secondary STAR."

Twitter

John Meyer: Barreiro asks Rosas: Do you have any concern about a lack of self-awareness with Wiggs? Rosas says his experiences with AW have been very good, he's been invested this summer and couldn't trade for someone like AW if he tried. "I know being in Minnesota is very important to him."

Twitter

John Meyer: "I want to thank the Timberwolves for believing in me when nobody else did," says Naz Reid. "Not being drafted humbled me. It put a bigger chip on my shoulder."

Twitter

John Meyer: Gersson Rosas speaking about Jarrett Culver as the Wolves introduce their three new rookies (including Jaylen Nowell and Naz Reid, who they announce has signed a multi-year contract): "When your best players are your hardest workers, they set the tone for the program."

John Meyer: Wiggins, per @Kyle Ratke: "It feels great. I'm one of the guys that have been w/ Ryan [Saunders] since my first season. To see this is an amazing feeling & well deserved. He's supported me my whole career & I've done the same for him. To see this day come is great for both of us"

Twitter

John Meyer: Rosas on Towns: "To have a player of that nature on your roster really gives you an upside that other organizations don't have. Our responsibility as an org. is to maximize him. I believe he's a top 10 player in this league. There's an opportunity to make him an MVP candidate."
