The move
Drew Timme, 26, joins the Minnesota Timberwolves. He came from free agency, with no roster tie beforehand, and the move was detected Friday, September 25 when he turned up on Minnesota's official roster. No report preceded this move; none is logged for Timme ahead of his arrival, so the addition surfaced only through the roster itself. Timme enters his third season with two years of NBA experience on record.
The money
Timme's contract is not on file yet, since public salary data can lag a signing by a day. Minnesota's overall books are set regardless: the Timberwolves carry $215.3M across 15 contracts for 2026-27, over the first apron. The cap sits at $165.0M, the tax line at $200.4M, the first apron at $209.0M and the second apron at $221.7M. Where Timme's number lands within that structure is not announced.
The fit
Timme played 27 games last season, averaging 8.7 minutes, 3.4 points, 1.2 rebounds and 0.9 assists. He joins a Minnesota frontcourt where Julius Randle logged 33.0 minutes and 21.1 points last season, Naz Reid played 26.1 minutes for 13.6 points, and Kyle Anderson added 19.1 minutes and 4.6 points. The Timberwolves now list 21 players on the roster, against a standard limit of 15 plus three two-way spots.
