Matt Ryan signs to the Timberwolves on a two-way deal

Guard Matt Ryan has signed a new contract with the Minnesota Timberwolves, for whom he played last season and will continue with the team for the upcoming campaign.

The 26-year-old was a free agent, but received an offer from Wolves for a two-way contract, which he accepted. That means the player will split next season between Minnesota and the team’s G-League affiliate the Iowa Wolves.

In his NBA career, which began in 2022, Ryan also played for the Boston Celtics and Los Angeles Lakers.
