Jonathan Kuminga to Timberwolves: Did Minnesota Just Get MUCH Better?

Jonathan Kuminga is headed to Minnesota. Does his arrival make the Timberwolves a legitimate threat to the top of the Western Conference? Wes Goldberg, Matt Moore and Haize break down Kuminga’s surprising two-year deal, why he chose a starting opportunity with the Timberwolves over more money from the Lakers, and what Chris Finch needs from him this season. Then it’s a double edition of The Rotation Lab. First, the guys build the Toronto Raptors’ opening-night rotation assuming Kawhi Leonard joins Scottie Barnes in Toronto and examine whether that pairing can work. Finally, they head to Utah to figure out a fascinating Jazz roster built around Lauri Markkanen, Darryn Peterson, Ace Bailey and Keyonte George — and determine how much losing Walker Kessler could hurt.
