The NBA Trade Deadline has come and gone, but that doesn't mean moves are over, as teams can still look to the buyout market to round out their roster. With two open roster spots, it's fair to expect the Minnesota Timberwolves to take advantage of the buyout market, and it feels all but guaranteed that they'll bring Mike Conley back. Now, since Conley was officially waived on Thursday, the Wolves will have to wait until Saturday when he clears waivers.
Regardless, Conley seems destined to return to Minnesota. There have been plenty of rumors mentioning this possibility as a likelihood, and Anthony Edwards openly advocated for Conley's return after Wednesday's game against the Toronto Raptors.
