No. 8 Minnesota Timberwolves: G/F Miles Bridges
School: Michigan State
Position: Forward/Guard
Size: 6'7"/230 pounds
Class: Freshman
2016-17 Stats: 16.9 ppg, 8.3 rpg, 2.1 apg, 1.5 bpg, .486 FG%, .389 3P%
Outlook: The T-Wolves have a roster full of young talent. Minnesota's biggest need is to add another big man, but this draft class is not deep at the position. Bridges gives them a player that can play stretch-four at times if Minnesota decides to go small. While Michigan State was not able to make a deep tournament run, Bridges had a good March Madness. He had 18 points and nine rebounds in the Spartans opening round contest against Miami. Bridges had 22 points and eight rebounds against Kansas in their Round of 32 game. (Getty)
