Minnesota Timberwolves: 2020 NBA Mock Draft 1.0
15. Orlando Magic – Kira Lewis, Guard, Alabama
The Minnesota Timberwolves need another guard to add to their offense-heavy rotation. Maxey is a player that can provide two-way ability as soon as he steps on the court. He has excellent playmaking ability along with shooting upside.
Maxey also brings a lot as a facilitator and should be able to play either guard position. He is an excellent fit for both Malik Beasley and D’Angelo Russell. Maxey is also a high-level pick-and-roll player and should easily mesh with Karl-Anthony Towns.
