Would you rather have 5 elite years of Giannis & Anthony Edwards or 10 more years of Jaden? That’s the question Wolves fans need to ask themselves. Not many times can you get a top player of all time.
Minnesota Lynx rankings this season:
— Best record
— Best offense
— Best defense
— 1st in REB
— 1st in STL
— 1st in TS%
— Last in FT attempts
Pure. Hoops.
Timberwolves Free Agents:
Mike Conley (UFA)
Ayo Dosunmu (UFA) Bird Rights
Bones Hyland (UFA)
Kyle Anderson (UFA)
Jaylen Clark (RFA)
Joe Ingles (Out of NBA)
Options:
Julian Phillips (Team Option)
The Timberwolves are expected to pursue a star point guard, and Kyrie Irving could become their top target.
Minnesota can build an offer for the Mavericks centered around Naz Reid and their 2026 1st-round pick:
Minnesota: Kyrie
Dallas: Reid, Donte DiVincenzo, No. 28 overall
Chris Finch when speaking about Julius Randle via @PAOnTheMic Nine to Noon show:
“It was up to me to get him going and involved and I didn’t. I take the blame because we couldn’t get him going in the playoffs”
Couple clarifying comments here:
1. I do expect Ayo to re-sign with Minnesota. Probably on a 5-year deal.
2. It will not REQUIRE the Timberwolves trading Donte.
3. Evan Sidery is a fucking loser.
This is the same guy who said Minnesota “had” to trade Karl-Anthony Towns and build around Edwards. These ESPN “analysts” get paid to just blabber. Wolves had no choice with the second apron and would have had zero flexibility.
“The Minnesota Timberwolves are on the verge of making one of the worst trades in NBA history. If Karl-Anthony Towns … [brings] a championship to New York, that’s going to make the Minnesota Timberwolves look like fools.”
