At #18, they picked yet another point guard, North Carolina's Ty Lawson.
Their final first-rounder was Lawson's backcourt mate, shooting guard Wayne Ellington.
In the second round, the Timberwolves selected a fourth point guard, Nick Calathes of Florida.
The glut of point guards was partially resolved when the Timberwolves traded the rights to Lawson to the Denver Nuggets and Calathes to the Dallas Mavericks.
In any event, Calathes was not expected to join the NBA in the near future, as he has signed a multimillion-dollar contract with Panathinaikos, one of the strongest clubs in his ancestral home of Greece.
