Toronto Raptors Receive: F/C Karl-Anthony Towns
Minnesota Timberwolves Receive: F/C Pascal Siakam
There are broader questions at play here. What’s the best course of action for a middling NBA team?
Many will say that they ought to plunge to the bottom. There’s merit in the position. A team that can’t seem to reach true contender status may do well to simply capitalize on the league’s lottery system.
On the other hand, there are extenuating circumstances. What if a team already has a young player that they view as having franchise player potential?
Shouldn’t they aim to put a winning product around that player?
After all, players request trades more quickly than ever. If the Timberwolves can’t satisfy Anthony Edwards soon, who knows if his eyes will wander?
