Summary
The Timberwolves technically could have some cap space, but it would come at the cost of losing most of their key potential free agents, some of which may opt in. Therefore, it's almost certain that the Timberwolves actually operate over the cap.
If Minott and Miller are retained, the Timberwolves will have about $46 million below the luxury tax, $54 million below the first apron, and $64 million below the second apron, not including any of Randle, Reid, or Alexander-Walker.
Depending on what happens with each of them, the Timberwolves could have the full $14.1 million Non-Taxpayer MLE and the $5.1 million Bi-Annual Exception to add talent if they can remain below the first apron. Otherwise, they may just have the $5.7 million Taxpayer MLE to add talent and stay below the 2nd apron. If their own free agents push them over the 2nd apron, they will only be able to offer minimum contracts to free agents.
