Report: Wolves decline to guarantee Taurean Prince’s contract

The Minnesota Timberwolves declined to guarantee forward Taurean Prince’s $7.4 million contract for the upcoming season, making him a free agent, ESPN reported Wednesday.

Prince, 29, averaged 8.1 points per game in his two seasons with the Wolves.

He averages 10.4 points and 3.7 rebounds in 424 career games (222 starts) for four teams, including the Atlanta Hawks (2016-19).

The Utah Jazz selected Prince No. 12 overall in the 2016 draft but traded him to the Hawks two weeks later as part of a three-team trade.

The Timberwolves are now $15.6 million under the luxury tax, per ESPN, with four open roster spots.
