http://www.nbadraft.net/2014-nba-draft-grades Minnesota Draft Grade Additions Analysis A- #13 Zach LaVine #40 Glenn Robinson III We are extremely high on both players, but we fear that landing in Minnesota could spell doom. The Timberwolves are among the dregs of the league in terms of culture, and with two high-upside early entries, a strong environment would be extremely benefical for their development. With LaVine and GR3, Minnesota gets two of the draft's best athletes, both of whom are works in progress. With Kevin Love seemingly on his way out, Minnesota decided against a replacement. Instead, they're looking to develop a future 2/3 combination. First was the rumored promise for Zach LaVine, who seemed shocked that he had slipped to this point of the draft. An absolutely elite run-and-jump athlete, LaVine provided glimpses of massive potential at UCLA. His handle and shot are both solid, with strength and overall basketball acumen still needing time. If the team has a plan in place for him, only a handful of players in the draft have his potential. GR3 (as Glenn Robinson III is sometimes referred to) is the son of former No. 1 pick, Glenn "Big Dog" Robinson. "Little Big Dog" was seen as a possible lottery pick headed into the season after playing a strong complementary role on Michigan's 2013 NCAA Tournament runner-up team. He is another fantastic leaper who shows flashes, with his ball skills and body both in need of work. Look for the Timberwolves to bring both along slowly;however, the potential here is impressive. Minnesota'se fantasy would be for this to be the backcourt of the future. It is hard to believe that will be the case; though, if one or both put it together, this will be a big step forward for this franchise. --
