Timberwolves may draft injured forward Thomas Sorber

The Minnesota Timberwolves are currently in a tight race for the playoffs in the NBA. They sit in seventh place in the Western Conference with a record of 40-30. The team is set to participate in the Play-In Tournament, facing the possibility of missing the playoffs. As they look toward the future, the Timberwolves are preparing for the upcoming draft. With March Madness underway, many are making predictions about college prospects. One expert, Gilbert McGregor, has suggested that the Timberwolves might select Georgetown forward Thomas Sorber in the first round. Sorber has impressive stats, averaging 14.5 points, 8.5 rebounds, and 2.4 assists per game before suffering a foot injury that ended his season. McGregor believes that despite the injury, Sorber's skills as a shot blocker and playmaker could greatly benefit Minnesota's frontcourt. He notes that taking a chance on Sorber could yield positive results for the Timberwolves. While he may need some development time, selecting him could be worth the risk if he is available at the 17th pick in the draft.
