Minnesota Timberwolves Receive: F Jerami Grant
Detroit Pistons Receive: G Malik Beasley, F Josh Okogie, 2022 First Round Pick
Jerami Grant signed a three-year deal with the Detroit Pistons last offseason. He was the focal point of the offense this season and he showed that he can lead a team. This means there is plenty of value around him.
Grant is a true ‘3-and-D’ player, which is valuable for a win-now team but showed he’s capable of more than just filling that role. The Timberwolves are not a win-now team but they could still benefit from Grant.
In this particular NBA trade scenario, the Timberwolves would be able to send Malik Beasley and Josh Okogie to the Pistons as the players involved in the swap.
The Timberwolves have names on the perimeter, including D’Angelo Russell and Anthony Edwards, that would be intriguing trade pieces if they want to retool once again. Having an option like Grant at the four spot would be quite impactful particularly alongside Karl-Anthony Towns, too.
