Joe Ingles is reportedly on the move.
The Australian free agent has agreed to a one-year, AU$4.9 million deal with the Minnesota Timberwolves, according to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.
Ingles, who will turn 37 later this year, averaged 4.4 points, 3.0 assists, and 2.1 rebounds in 17.2 minutes across 68 appearances off the bench for the Orlando Magic during the 2023/24 season, becoming an unrestricted free agent after the franchise declined his $16 million option.
Following an eight-year tenure with the Utah Jazz, the veteran forward has represented the Milwaukee Bucks and Magic over the last two seasons, while his 11th NBA campaign looks set to be in Minnesota, where he will reunite with former Utah teammates Rudy Gobert and Mike Conley.

Ingles boasts a career three-point record of 41 per cent, which among NBA players with more than 2500 attempts over the past decade is bettered only by JJ Redick (42.9 per cent), Steph Curry (42.1 per cent) and Klay Thompson (41.4 per cent).
He will also represent Australia at the upcoming Paris Olympics, where he’ll be looking to secure another medal for the Boomers.
Ingles is the fourth Australian to move this summer, with Dyson Daniels dealt to Atlanta, Josh Giddey to Chicago and Josh Green traded to Charlotte.
