Ronny Turiaf has revealed that he is delighted to join the Minnesota Timberwolves because of the "special talent" in the team.

The 30-year-old joined the Wolves in July after leaving the Los Angeles Clippers following just one season in California.

"I'm so excited about joining this team because of what they already are and what I can bring to the table," Turiaf told reporters. "It's this kid excitement, this pureness about really wanting to accomplish something special.

"I can just do whatever needs to be done to win the game. This team has special talent. If I can help people get better, just by giving advice and sharing what I've seen. I'm all about winning."

Turiaf won the NBA title with the Miami Heat in 2012.
