MINNEAPOLIS — The Minnesota Timberwolves have almost their entire rotation signed for next season coming off this breakthrough journey to the Western Conference finals. Maintaining the continuity they're seeking is going to cost them. The Wolves are on track for a hefty luxury tax bill. President of basketball operations Tim Connelly said he's confident the team's unsettled ownership situation won't affect the ability to keep the core together. He said he believes he can continue to be aggressive about solidifying the roster. Connelly also said he's not planning to leave Minnesota after two years despite an opt-out in his contract this offseason.
