The Minnesota Timberwolves, a team that ended the season with the league's third-worst record, has won the 2020 NBA draft lottery and the right to the first pick in the draft on Oct. 16. "There's a lot of steps left in this journey for us, but today was a significant one," Timberwolves president of basketball operations Gersson Rosas said. "We're excited about the potential level of player that we can add to our organization, but at the same time, we are going to be very aggressive and look at every avenue to improve this team. We have two young stars in Karl-Anthony Towns and D'Angelo Russell that we're building this together [with]. We've got a great young core that's young and being one of the youngest, if not the youngest, team in the NBA. We have a lot of upside...But this allows us to take a major step in talent acquisition, whether it's in the draft or the trade market, whatever the case may be. It really positions us well moving forward."
