| Kevin Garnett | Starter/Star | 39.2 | High (1.2) | 21.2 | 12.1 | 5.2 | 2.8 | 137.86 | Garnett’s 2000-01 season was an all-around dominant performance, as he not only posted impressive scoring and rebounding numbers, but his versatility and defense elevated the Timberwolves. Garnett was tasked with carrying the team, and he delivered with a blend of scoring, defense, and playmaking. His MVP runner-up finish and DPOY consideration proved his worth at both ends of the court. | MVP (2001), DPOY (2001), All-Star (2001), NBA 2nd Team (2001), NBA All-Defensive 1st Team (2001) |
| Wally Szczerbiak | Starter/Star | 38.0 | High (1.2) | 18.7 | 4.8 | 3.1 | 2.2 | 107.72 | Szczerbiak emerged as a key scoring option for the Timberwolves. His sharpshooting ability, particularly from deep, allowed him to stretch defenses and complement Garnett. Despite being primarily a scorer, his ability to create plays and contribute on the boards added value, helping to balance the team’s offensive attack. He showed glimpses of becoming a star in his own right. | All-Star (2001) |
| Terrell Brandon | Key Contributor | 30.1 | Medium (1.1) | 12.4 | 2.9 | 8.3 | 1.5 | 60.99 | In a role that was primarily focused on orchestrating the offense, Brandon showcased excellent playmaking. His ability to facilitate helped keep the Timberwolves’ offense fluid. Although he wasn’t the top scorer, his leadership as a point guard made him an invaluable part of the rotation. He contributed both in scoring and facilitating, earning him respect as a key contributor. | – |
| Chauncey Billups | Key Contributor | 28.7 | Medium (1.1) | 12.5 | 2.8 | 5.5 | 1.7 | 59.62 | Billups, known for his defense and steady leadership, played a pivotal role in the backcourt. Though he wasn’t a primary scorer, his defensive ability and playmaking provided stability. His growth as a two-way player helped maintain balance in the team’s offense and defense. Billups’ resilience in clutch moments added a different dynamic to the squad. | – |
| Rasho Nesterović | Starter/Star | 27.0 | Medium (1.1) | 8.4 | 6.5 | 0.9 | 1.1 | 53.11 | Nesterović was a reliable presence in the middle for the Timberwolves. His rebounding and defense made him a key piece of the team’s interior play, while his efficient scoring allowed the team to maintain offensive flow. Though not flashy, his contributions in the paint were instrumental to the team’s success. His role as a steady big man provided the team with much-needed stability. | – |
| Joe Smith | Starter/Star | 26.7 | Low (1.0) | 10.7 | 6.3 | 1.1 | 0.9 | 54.12 | Smith’s steady and unsung contributions were integral to the Timberwolves’ frontcourt. As a big man, he provided solid rebounding and an inside scoring presence, complementing the more dynamic players like Garnett and Szczerbiak. He wasn’t the focal point but remained reliable. His defensive impact was quiet yet effective in the team’s overall scheme. | – |
| Anthony Peeler | Bench | 25.1 | Low (1.0) | 9.0 | 2.5 | 2.2 | 1.7 | 33.48 | Peeler provided scoring and energy off the bench, especially as a perimeter shooter. His defensive versatility allowed him to guard multiple positions, which made him a valuable backup. He had the occasional hot streak, but for the most part, he was a steady reserve who brought hustle and grit to the table. | – |
| Gary Trent | Bench | 17.8 | Low (1.0) | 7.5 | 4.2 | 0.9 | 0.4 | 25.59 | Trent’s minutes were limited, but he brought energy and rebounding during his time on the floor.

His ability to contribute on both ends of the floor made him a valuable role player. | – |
| Robert Pack | Bench | 15.8 | Low (1.0) | 3.9 | 1.4 | 3.1 | 0.8 | 14.23 | Pack’s limited playing time hindered his impact on the team, but he provided energy off the bench when needed. His brief minutes per game weren’t enough to make a significant impact on the Timberwolves’ success but he contributed with a bit of scoring and playmaking during his limited role. | – |
| Marc Jackson | Bench | 14.8 | Low (1.0) | 4.6 | 3.9 | 0.3 | 0.1 | 13.62 | Jackson’s minutes were sparse, but his contributions were mostly on the boards, where he added some depth for the team. His limited time on the floor didn’t allow him to significantly shape the team’s performance. Nonetheless, he was a serviceable depth piece. | – |
| Sam Mitchell | Bench | 9.8 | Low (1.0) | 3.3 | 1.1 | 0.6 | 0.4 | 6.89 | A veteran presence, Mitchell didn’t play major minutes but was a seasoned backup forward who provided leadership and experience during crucial stretches. His shooting efficiency was solid, but his impact was muted by his limited role. His experience helped stabilize the bench unit. | – |
| William Avery | Bench | 9.2 | Low (1.0) | 2.5 | 0.9 | 1.3 | 0.6 | 4.85 | Avery was a young backup guard with limited playing time. His primary contributions came in terms of playmaking, though his impact was minimal due to his short minutes. While his potential was evident, he didn’t have much of an opportunity to show it this season. | – |
| Felipe López | Bench | 8.7 | Low (1.0) | 2.5 | 1.2 | 0.6 | 0.5 | 3.52 | López provided depth on the wing but struggled to make a consistent impact. His scoring was modest, and his defensive contributions didn’t significantly sway games in his favor. His role was small, and his playing time limited, which prevented him from making a lasting impression. | – |
| Loren Woods | Bench | 8.6 | Low (1.0) | 1.8 | 2.0 | 0.4 | 0.6 | 3.37 | Woods was another young player whose minutes were limited. He brought some energy and length but didn’t have much of a sustained impact. His potential as a shot-blocker was visible, but his offensive game wasn’t polished. As a result, he played a small role for the team. | – |
| Dean Garrett | Bench | 5.2 | Low (1.0) | 1.0 | 1.6 | 0.1 | 0.2 | 2.28 | Garrett was a depth piece at center, offering limited contributions during his time on the floor. He provided an extra big body for the team but didn’t have a lasting impact on games due to his minimal playing time. | – |
| Maurice Evans | Bench | 4.5 | Low (1.0) | 2.1 | 0.4 | 0.4 | 0.2 | 3.02 | Evans saw limited minutes and wasn’t able to provide much outside of his defensive versatility. His role was small, and he didn’t have much of an impact, but his athleticism allowed him to be a disruptive force in short bursts. |
