Orlando Magic Receive: D’Angelo Russell, Jarrett Culver

Minnesota Timberwolves Receive: Evan Fournier, Aaron Gordon, Cole Anthony, 2021 1st Round Pick 

D’Angelo Russell would be sent to the Orlando Magic to team up with Nikola Vucevic and Aaron Gordon. This would give the Magic an intriguing core to lean on moving forward.

The return will not be cheap for an All-Star caliber guard like D’Angelo Russell. It begins with players like Evan Fournier and Aaron Gordon. They are proven commodities in the NBA and could play valuable minute right away. Both players could fill important veteran roles alongside Anthony Edwards and Karl-Anthony Towns.

Cole Anthony and a first-round pick in this year’s draft would also be thrown into the mix. He would be able to develop behind Ricky Rubio and would be able to overtake the starting role if he progresses enough.

Let’s take a closer look and see how this trade centered around D’Angelo Russell will benefit both the Minnesota Timberwolves and Orlando Magic.
