Recurring injuries have forced the once-productive Pekovic to miss 121 games over the past two seasons, putting both he and the Timberwolves in a precarious situation entering 2016-17. As training camp approached, Pekovic was still not fully healthy while continues to deal with complications stemming from an April 2015 procedure on his right Achilles. He’s still owed more than $23 million over the next two years, and while the Timberwolves would likely prefer to move him, it’s difficult to imagine there’s much of a market for a 30-year-old big man with a lengthy injury history. Even if Pekovic were healthy, he’d have trouble cracking the frontcourt rotation as a slow-footed defender who doesn’t space the floor. The Timberwolves will continue to monitor Pekovic’s progress, but the big man can be safely ignored in fantasy leagues.
