AUGUSTA, GA--It was just a week ago when Garret Siler was hoping to hear his name and be picked in the NBA draft. While that didn't happen, Siler knew he'd be playing ball somewhere this summer. We now know it'll be with the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Siler is on the T-wolves roster and will be part of the NBA summer league in Las Vegas. The team is made up of guys who are either rookies or have a year or two of experience as Siler joins them as a free agent. It's a five game schedule that lasts 10 days. An impressive showing here could easily lead to a contract with either Minnesota or another NBA team.
