John Elway was the most highly touted Quarterback of the 1983 Draft, but he made it very clear from the start that he did not want to play for the Baltimore Colts who had the number one overall pick.  He would be traded to the Denver Broncos, and while he had some growing pains the way most young Quarterbacks do, he blossomed into one of the greatest dual-threat Running Backs in NFL history.

This entry is exceptionally tricky as Jimmy Butler only played 69 Games for the Timberwolves, and he forced a trade to get out.  That being said, the Shooting Guard put forth high numbers with a 22.0 Point per Game Average and a 23.5 PER, which are excellent statistics for his tenure there.

From Serbia, Nemanja Bjelica was drafted by the Washington Wizards who traded him to Minnesota on a 2010 Draft Day Trade, but he elected to stay in Europe where he would be the EuroLeague MVP in 2015.  After that impressive performance, he traveled stateside where he played three seasons for the Timberwolves as their backup Power Forward where he averaged 6.1 Points and 3.8 Rebounds per Game.

Arriving as part of a draft-day trade from the Cleveland Cavaliers, Tyus Jones came to Minnesota after being named the Final Four Most Outstanding Player and taking Duke the NCAA Championship in 2015.  Jones played his first four years of his NBA career with the T-Wolves, and while he has not seen good production numbers, he rarely turns the ball over and became above-average on the defensive side of the ball.  That would reflect on his advanced metrics.
