The Timberwolves have rescinded their two-way qualifying offer for wing Kelan Martin, reports Jon Krawczynski of The Athletic (Twitter link). The move makes him an unrestricted free agent.
Martin emerged as a rotation player in Minnesota last season, averaging 6.4 PPG and 3.1 RPG in 31 games (16.0 MPG), though he struggled with his shot (.392 FG%, .260 FT%).
Although the Wolves liked him enough to initially make him a restricted free agent, there likely wouldn’t have been enough minutes to go around for him next season, given the team’s wing depth, tweets Krawczynski.
The Wolves still have a qualifying offer out to their other two-way free agent, Jordan McLaughlin.
What about Wigginton, any word?
You’d better be a decent shot or play defense if you make this Timberwolves squad now…..Too many Ole’ defensive players and crappy shots…how about decent ft shooters too…..horrible team ft % last year as well.
Gotta cut this guy to make room for Edwards.
