Wolves have no illusions with the Draft

This year, the Jazz will select three players in the first round of the Draft. The Salt Lake City franchise has the 9th, 16th and 28th choices. This 16th “pick” comes straight from Minnesota and the massive transfer set up last summer around Rudy Gobert.

Unlike Jazz, Wolves have no possibility of selecting in the first round. They will have to wait for the 53rd choice, at the end of the second round, to target a young person. However, they would like to have the opportunity to go back through this selection process.

We talk a lot. I don’t think we are close to reaching the first round. In general, many calls are theoretical until the last 24 hours. We’ll see », suits Tim Connellypresident of the club.

This “pick” may seem modest, the manager says he wants to look ” someone who could fit into our culture. If you look at the choices they make in the second round, it’s the person that matters more than the talent. We will probably give priority to a player who can contribute to the culture of the team. »

While rumors circulate around the Karl-Anthony Towns case, likely to be transferred, Tim Connelly assures that his club has a “ hard core and we can’t wait to find him again. There have been ups and downs. Our inability to win enough matches against teams that had worse records really hurt us. … You can point to specific games where we weren’t good enough. »

We have to have a long-term approach to everything, but we are very excited for next October. We have a gym full of guys right now, the energy is fantastic. Once again we have a great coaching staff and owners so we are very excited for next year. I think sometimes you can be too focused on the next three to five years and not think about what it’s going to be like on October 28th at Target Center. “, Ends the leader, whose Draft does not seem to be the priority.
