The Minnesota Timberwolves have acquired point guard Monte Morris from the Detroit Pistons in exchange for guards Shake Milton and Troy Brown Jr. and a second-round pick in the 2030 draft, according to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.
Morris, 28, recorded a career average of 10.3 points and 5.3 assists for the Washington Wizards last season, starting in 61 of 62 games played.
He missed the first 43 games of the 2023-24 season due to a right quadriceps injury, but returned to the court on 24 January as a reserve for the Pistons.
In the final season of a three-year, $27.7 million contract, Morris brings his playoff experience to the Wolves, this being one of the best seasons in franchise history with a 35-16 record, ranking first in the Western.
With 48 playoff games under his belt (10 as a starter) with the Denver Nuggets, Morris will look to bolster the Timberwolves’ offense, which has recently been struggling in the late games.
