Oladipo went to Indiana for college, while Edwards played for UGA.
They both played for the same head coach (Tom Crean).
Oladipo was the second pick in the 2013 NBA Draft by the Orlando Magic.
He became one of the best shooting guards in the NBA during his tenure with the Indiana Pacers.
However, the 32-year-old has dealt with a lot of injuries that have derailed the prime of his career.
In addition to Orlando and Indiana, Oladipo has also spent time with the Houston Rockets, Miami Heat and Oklahoma City Thunder (he is currently a free agent).
As for Edwards, made his second NBA All-Star Game last year.
The Timberwolves also reached the Western Conference finals for the first time since the 2004 season (when Kevin Garnett was still on the roster).
