Timberwolves to sign former first-round pick Justin Jackson to 10-day contract

When the Timberwolves come back from the All-Star break, they'll have a new addition to the team, at least for a little while.

The team plans to sign former first-round pick Justin Jackson to a 10-day contract, a source confirmed. Jackson, a forward, has played in parts of six seasons after he was the 15th overall pick in the 2017 draft. He's averaged in 6.0 points per game in 278 games.

Jackson's career began with Sacramento, where he played in part of two seasons before the Kings dealt him to Dallas as part of a deal to get Harrison Barnes.
