Even though some GM’s are stating to grow cold on Jennings I have hunch he will not fall past the T-Wolves at #6. New GM David Kahn is basically placing the team on a 2 year rebuilding phase and isn’t afraid to gamble on a player who’s overall potential outweighs his initial contributions to the team. The Wolves are expected to be very active come draft night due to their abundance of expiring contracts and 3 first round selections. Regardless what player is selected with the #6 pick expect Minnesota to attempt to aquire a veteran PG like Kirk Hinrich/Raymond Felton or wait until free agency and court Andre Miller.

Here is a like from a interview with Kahn talking about getting Minnesota back on track

that with a young team they should sign a veteran point, if they thrust Jennings in a heavy role on an already losing team it could be disastorous, Jennings like Sebastian Telfair didnt go to college and when Telfair was drafted he was expected to be Portlands immediate savior, but he became a bust

They’ll probably trade a good player for a stiff, Again
