A money decision, not a verdict
Minnesota will not pick up its 2027-28 team option on Cody Williams. The news came from The Athletic’s Jon Krawczynski on Friday, and he was quick to say what it is not about.
The Timberwolves like what they have seen from the young wing so far this season. The decision comes down to finances. Williams would have been owed more than $6 million next year, and that is a lot to fit into a very tight cap picture.
no renewal
Free for 2 weeks.
Two options taken, one left alone
The call arrives within the hour of Minnesota exercising its options on Terrence Shannon Jr. and Joan Beringer for next season. Both have played well early on and are seen as part of the team’s future.
Declining Williams’ option does not end his time in Minnesota right away. He remains under contract this season, and the decision only shapes what the Wolves owe him beyond it.
