Known for his solid perimeter defense, Trenton Hassell played the meat of his professional career with the Minnesota Timberwolves.  While he played the role of “Shooting” Guard, he was mostly valued for his defensive matchups, though realistically he would have probably been better off being used off of the bench.
Dean Garrett won the NCAA championship with the Indiana Hoosiers and the year later was drafted late in the Second Round.  Garrett never played in the NBA for eight years as he instead played in Europe but it was with the Timberwolves where he would finally play professionally in North America.  The big man would have two runs with Minnesota, often in a starting role.  While Garrett was not a star, he did actually lead the NBA in lowest Turnover Percentage in his first season, a fact combined with decent blocking numbers that earned him a spot on this list.
In terms of advanced metrics, Craig Smith is better than you remember.  Smith may never have pulled off anything higher than 10.1 Points per Game in his career (which he did in his third and final season in Minnesota), but his PER was higher than many of the scorers who played for the T-Wolves, and he was always a solid defender.  Smith was a Second Team All Rookie for the team in 2006/07 season.
Without a doubt, the three seasons that Tony Campbell spent with the Minnesota Timberwolves were by far the most productive of his NBA career.  Joining the expansion Timberwolves from the loaded Los Angeles Lakers, Campbell became a starter and rattled off two consecutive seasons of 20 Points per Game, more than triple what he had before.  Following his run in Minnesota, he would be back on the bench, but he was one of the few highlights that T-Wolves had in the first two seasons, a fact that never be taken away from him.
