Timberwolves hire Tim Connelly away from Nuggets to be President of Basketball Operations

The Minnesota Timberwolves have officially hired Tim Connelly to be the team's new president of basketball operations. Connelly leaves the Denver Nuggets after building one of the league's best teams over the past several years, including an impressive draft track record and a solid slew of roster-building trades. Ben Beecken (@bbeecken) discusses some of the more under-the-radar moves made by Connelly, and why the parallels between the Nuggets and Wolves roster-building situations are so important.
