Matt Barnes: Timberwolves Are Must-Watch Team This Season
Analyst Matt Barnes praised Minnesota's retooled roster, saying Anthony Edwards and LaMelo Ball will elevate each other, though one piece may still be missing for a title run.
Matt Barnes has picked out Minnesota as the team no one should be sleeping on this season, pointing to the retooled roster around Anthony Edwards.
"I really like their new team. Ant and LaMelo Ball will take each other to a new level. They're ready to compete. The squad trained in Europe this summer. I still think a LeBron move would have been ideal. He would have fit perfectly at power forward. Ideal situation in my view. They've got depth, a young roster and a good coach. They might be missing one more piece to really contend for the title. But either way, this is the most must-watch team this year," Barnes said.
Barnes backed Minnesota's depth, but left them short of title contenders.
