Hiding in plain sight is the newly formed Minnesota Timberwolves bench. Savvy vets and young players looking to establish themselves as bona fide players will check in for the lethal starting five that consists of D’Angelo Russell, Anthony Edwards, Jaden McDaniels, Karl-Anthony Towns, and Rudy Gobert.

What are the strengths of these new/returning rotation pieces, and how deep will Chris Finch go throughout the regular season? 11 players played over 800 minutes last year, per Cleaning the Glass. The competition is even steeper heading into what seems to be a loaded Western Conference, but honestly, the West just seems to become more of a bloodbath every year.
