Why The Minnesota Timberwolves Do The Deal 

The Timberwolves, on the other hand, are putting more emphasis on fit than talent in this situation. 

At this point, it seems that the Towns/Rudy Gobert pairing has been a failure by now. The Wolves must play at a slower pace for this twin towers duo to be able to guard the 4, and Towns cannot guard the 4. 

With this return, that won’t be an issue at all. In fact, Anunoby feels like a perfect addition to this squad. He should be able to contribute to making the Timberwolves defense one of the very best in the NBA if he plays with Gobert and McDaniels. 

Furthermore, the Wolves are getting compensated for moving the best player in this deal. Trent Jr. could be a very valuable asset for this group as a sixth man.
