Minnesota is keeping a pair of young players. The Timberwolves are exercising their contract options for next season on Terrence Shannon Jr. and Joan Beringer, a source told Jon Krawczynski of The Athletic.
Krawczynski called it no surprise, and it is easy to see why. Both players have performed well early in this season and are described as big parts of the franchise’s future.

Team options on young players are usually decided on production, and the early evidence here points one way. Picking them up removes any doubt about where both players stand beyond this campaign.
For a front office, the move also buys stability. Locking in both now means Minnesota does not have to revisit either contract in the short term while the season gets going.
