Minnesota Timberwolves 2025-2026 guide: Roster, Depth Chart & Key Players
The Minnesota Timberwolves are sticking with the core that took them to the Conference Finals, holding on to key certainties while leaving room for a few fantasy basketball gambles
After the gentleman’s sweep in the Conference Finals against OKC, the Timberwolves still seem a step away from being true title contenders. Let’s see how useful they can be in climbing the Dunkest rankings or even winning the Dunkest Cup.
At the end of the article, you can consult all the guides to the 30 NBA teams by accessing the Guide Index.

Key Players
The centerpiece of this team, Anthony Edwards (G, 16.5 cr), looks to be in the prime of his basketball maturity at just 24 years old, and continues to deliver strong performances game after game.
Rudy Gobert (C, 14.5 cr) continues to be a reliable asset for our Dunkest teams during the regular season. He may not put up huge scores, but he’s like our security blanket when we need a life-saving double-double.
Possible Surprises
With Nickeil Alexander-Walker gone, the backup point guard spot is expected to go to Rob Dillingham (G, 5.5 cr). The former 8th overall pick in the 2024 Draft should see more playing time this season. While still raw, he showed signs of improvement during the Summer League, a low-cost gamble that could pay off.
Players to Avoid
Nearly 38 years old, Mike Conley (G, 7.0 cr) appears to be in a slow but steady decline. His minutes dropped again last season, and the Timberwolves seem to be looking toward other options. After posting career-low scoring numbers, it’s probably best to look elsewhere.
Likely Starting Lineup
PG: Mike Conley (Guard, 7.0 Credits)
SG: Anthony Edwards (Guard, 16.5 Credits)
SF: Jaden McDaniels (Forward, 8.5 Credits)
PF: Julius Randle (Forward, 12.5 Credits)
C: Rudy Gobert (Center, 14.5 Credits)
Power Ranking
The Minnesota Timberwolves are clearly a well-established and cohesive team, but it feels like they may have already peaked. Much like last season, we expect them to finish the regular season within the top six in the Western Conference.
