I’ve also heard that Denver has considered acquiring former Mr. Nugget Monte Morris,
who’s barely receiving any minutes in a crowded Pistons guard rotation this season after he missed time with a quad injury.

More on this storyline
Looking ahead, the Timberwolves are also hopeful to re-sign starting point guard and veteran leader Mike Conley this summer, league sources told HoopsHype.
Conley, 36, is among the notable free agents available this summer. Minnesota has expressed trade interest in Tyus Jones, Monte Morris, and Bones Hyland, league sources told HoopsHype. Those trade targets were first reported by Yahoo Sports. -via HoopsHype

On a smaller scale, rival teams continue to be interested in Pistons guard Monté Morris, per league sources.
The Timberwolves are one of the teams with the most interest. Minnesota, per league sources, tried to trade for Morris when he was in Washington prior to Detroit. The Pistons, though, also value what Morris brings to the table as a veteran guard who takes care of the ball and can shoot. Morris just returned from injuries that forced him to miss the first 43 games of the season. -via The Athletic

Minnesota remains active in the reserve point guard market, according to league sources. Perhaps the Timberwolves will be the landing spot for Jones, bringing the point guard back to his first franchise and his hometown area. Sources said Minnesota is also considering two additions at the position who overlapped with team president Tim Connelly in Denver: Monte Morris and Bones Hyland
