Free agent guard Mike Conley Jr. plans to return to the Minnesota Timberwolves, according to sources via ESPN. The two sides are currently working on the specific timing for him to officially re-sign with the franchise following his release earlier this week.
Conley’s return to Minnesota follows an unusual series of transactions. The veteran guard was traded twice in a single week—first being sent to the Chicago Bulls and then subsequently moved to the Charlotte Hornets. Following the second trade, Conley was released by the Hornets, granting him the opportunity to rejoin the Timberwolves as a free agent.
Since joining the Timberwolves, Mike Conley Jr. has been a vital component of the team’s starting lineup and a respected veteran presence in the locker room. His ability to manage the offense and provide perimeter shooting has been essential to the team's recent success. By re-signing Conley, Minnesota ensures continuity at the point guard position as they push for playoff positioning.
