The Minnesota Timberwolves have been relatively quiet about their plans this offseason, but they are reportedly preparing to make big and surprising moves this summer.

According to Zach Lowe of ESPN, the Timberwolves are currently working on possible deals that would bolster their roster for next season. Lowe revealed that the Timberwolves are eyeing Brooklyn Nets guard D'Angelo Russell, but it remains to be seen how will they make room for free agents in the coming days.

“Minnesota's up to something. Minnesota's up to lots of things,” Lowe said via Sagar Trika of Blazers Edge. “They've been linked to D'Angelo Russell. I think that's real. I have no idea how they're actually gonna do it because they have no cap space, but I think there's some interest there.”

Lowe added that in order to create space for a top-tier player this summer, the Timberwolves will have to find a deal for Andrew Wiggins. The NBA analyst said that one person he talked to strongly believes that Minnesota will find a win-win trade involving Wiggins.

The Timberwolves are reportedly shopping the 24-year-old forward, who still has four seasons left in his five-year, $147.71 million contract with the Timberwolves. Wiggins, the first overall pick in the 2014 NBA Draft, averaged 18.1 points on top of 4.8 rebounds and 2.5 assists in 73 games for the Timberwolves last season.
