Timberwolves selected Trey Kaufman-Renn with the No. 59 pick in the NBA Draft.
After coming off the bench as a freshman, Kaufman-Renn started all 112 games in his final three seasons at Purdue. While his scoring output slipped from the 2024-25 campaign to this past season, the rugged 6-foot-9 forward remained productive with averages of 14.2 points, 8.3 rebounds and 2.5 assists, shooting 57.8 percent from the field and 63.6 percent from the foul line. Kaufman-Renn, who did most of his damage offensively in the paint, increased his rebounds and assists in each of his four college seasons. The combination of touch around the basket and footwork should serve him well at the next level. The question is whether he’ll get the opportunity needed to provide the Timberwolves with additional frontcourt depth.
