Minnesota finances post trade/Kuminga signing

The waive and stretch of John Konchar ($2.05M cap hit over 3 seasons), leaves Minnesota $4.5M below the second apron after the Kuminga signing. They will have enough money to sign a 14th player and remain under.

Swapping out Josh Green for Cody Williams/John Konchar puts Minnesota $6.489M below the second apron hard cap. First year salary for Jonathan Kuminga is $6.06M.

Shams Charania

The Timberwolves are expected to keep Cody Williams, the No. 10 pick in 2024, and waive-and-stretch John Konchar, sources said. They found a home for Josh Green on a Jazz team that wanted an additional 3-and-D wing; moving his $14.7 million deal gives Minnesota the salary space

The Minnesota Timberwolves are trading Josh Green and cash to the Utah Jazz for Cody Williams and John Konchar, sources tell ESPN.
