Yahoo Sports' Shams Charania reported the Jazz will release Rose so he can pursue deals with potential playoff teams.
The Timberwolves have expressed a degree of interest in Rose for some time. NBA.com's David Aldridge reported prior to the trade deadline last year that Minnesota was in "strong" pursuit of the 29-year-old.
Rose was also rumored to be a potential free-agent target for the Timberwolves last summer, per ESPN's Ian Begley. He wound up signing a one-year deal with the Cavaliers in July, averaging 9.8 points per game in 16 contests for the reigning Eastern Conference champions.
