The Minnesota Timberwolves have a point guard problem – but what’s the solution?

The Minnesota Timberwolves have a point guard problem. But if Mike Conley is part of the problem, then what’s the realistic solution that Chris Finch and the Wolves might be able to turn to? Ben Beecken breaks down Conley’s struggles to this point, as well as the flaw in roster construction and coaching strategy that’s led them to this point. Are more minutes for Anthony Edwards, Donte DiVincenzo, and Nickeil Alexander-Walker at the point guard spot the answer? Or is it Rob Dillingham?

  1. They're not using Donte correctly. He's not a PG, he's a SG that can occasionally create.

    Conley isn't great either. Age, injury and trying to mesh with other ball dominant/creators, he's looking lost.

    Do we not have any money to add some backup PG depth on a veteran deal? There are guys like Dennis Smith Jr available? Killian Hayes?

    We're doing all this hoarding of players kike Leonard Miller, Jaylen Clark, PJ Dozier, Jesse Edwards, Luka and they never play. What's the point? Move them for some PG/C depth.

  2. Its sad/weird to see the Twolves lose their identity.
    Idk where they stand after losing back to back to the blazers 😂
    Thats suppose to be a bottom feeding team. They dont even have a legit "main guy"/face of the team on their roster.

    They continue to pickup where they left off last season in the playoffs: struggling against teams that have elite rim protection.

    Ant is amazing, but Gobert being so clunky and basically a non-factor on offense, makes Ant's drives to paint so much harder when facing elite rim protectors.

  3. It’s like the wolves should have acquired a young point guard who could take the load off of Mike Conley this offseason. Preferably one that comes from a program that is known for high level talent at the position.
