Minnesota Timberwolves officially sign free agent Jonathan Kuminga
Summary

The Minnesota Timberwolves officially signed Jonathan Kuminga on Thursday following a series of offseason roster adjustments. Kuminga joins the team on a two-year, $13 million deal that includes a player option. He is expected to start alongside Anthony Edwards, LaMelo Ball, Jaden McDaniels, and Rudy Gobert. The move concludes a busy stretch for the organization, which also traded for LaMelo Ball and acquired Cody Williams from the Utah Jazz in a deal involving Josh Green and cash considerations. Minnesota waived and stretched the contract of John Konchar to clear the necessary salary flexibility for the new signing. At 23 years old, Kuminga is positioned to integrate into an offense built around Edwards and Ball as the franchise pursues a deep postseason run.
