Season Report
The Wolves were excited to see the development of Corey Brewer after a promising rookie campaign in 2007-08. The 7th overall pick out of Florida is considered a crucial component for the future success of the franchise. At 6-9, Brewer offers the Wolves' coaching staff flexibility with the ability to play several different positions on the floor. The defensive-minded Brewer averaged a steal per game in only 20 minutes of court time this year. In 2008-09, Brewer did not get a chance to develop a specific role on the team after the Wolves started just 4-11. The opportunity to improve this past season was also severely halted on December 1 when Minnesota announced that Brewer sustained an ACL tear and would miss the rest of the season. Brewer is on track for a successful return this upcoming year. The Wolves are elated to add Brewer back into the mix of young players on a squad that is in need of a defensive specialist at the guard-forward positions.
