Minnesota Timberwolves Pursue Nicolas Batum

The Minnesota Timberwolves and Rick Adelman entered the off season and free agency with aggressive intentions.

The organization looked to dominate the free agency market and trades to bring in skilled veterans who could encourage a Minnesota evolution.

The Timberwolves hosted Boston Celtics free agent Greg Stiemsma and were working hard to bring in Portland restricted free agent Nicolas Batum for a visit, just two days after visiting Brandon Roy in Seattle. 

After failing to extend offers to Michael Beasley and Anthony Randolph, the Wolves freed up more than $12 million to use in free agency.
