The Minnesota Timberwolves trio of Ricky Rubio, Kevin Love and Derrick Williams have been in place for a few years already, but they can never stay on the court together because of their tendency to get injured.
Rubio is one of the most exciting young point guards in the league, and Love is already a top three power forward, so this team depends a lot on whether or not Williams can become a productive NBA player.
After being drafted second overall in 2011, he has yet to show that he belongs, floating between the small forward and power forward spots, not asserting himself as either. Ultimately, this team needs to be healthy for 82 games to see if this trio is worth keeping together.
