The Story in 60 Seconds

Writer Kenny Kluska argues that the Minnesota Timberwolves' open two-way roster spot holds little significance due to the franchise rarely utilizing two-way players at the NBA level.

Kluska highlights that Minnesota barely played two-way players like Freeman and Rocco Zikarsky last season, with Zyon Pullin logging only six minutes through eight games this season.
