Monroe is 31-years-old and last played in the NBA for the Philadelphia 76ers in 2019. 

He has also played for the Detroit Pistons, Milwaukee Bucks, Phoenix Suns, Boston Celtics and Toronto Raptors.   

Monroe was a very talented forward in the beginning of his career (nine NBA seasons so far), and has impressive career averages of 13.2 points 8.3 rebound and 2.1 assists per game.  

The Timberwolves have a lot of players out due to health and safety protocols, so he will provide some much needed depth to a roster that is missing most of its key players.
