Timberwolves land Jonathan Kuminga in rare free agency win over the Lakers - The Athletic

The Minnesota Timberwolves have signed 23-year-old Jonathan Kuminga, beating out the Los Angeles Lakers in free agency to fill a power forward vacancy created by the trades of Julius Randle and Naz Reid. Kuminga, who averaged 12.3 points per game with the Atlanta Hawks last season, brings athleticism to a young Timberwolves roster aiming to contend. The signing was notable given Minnesota's limited cap space following the acquisition of LaMelo Ball from Charlotte.
