Ahead of the trade deadline, I think everyone knows that the Minnesota Timberwolves need to upgrade their point guard depth. Bones Hyland, Mike Conley, and Rob Dillingham aren't an ideal PG trio for a team with title hopes. As such, it's somewhat natural that people have speculated that they could trade for a star-level point guard, including Ja Morant.
However, it's been consistently reported (mainly by Jake Fischer) that the Timberwolves aren't interested in adding a high-salary player. On Friday, Michael Scotto confirmed Fischer's previous reporting that the Wolves aren't interested in Morant.
"Earlier this season, the Minnesota Timberwolves also conducted due diligence and called Memphis regarding Morant’s availability, but that interest has subsided since," Scotto reported.
