I'd say a 1-for-0

I also wanted to point out that one major reason the Wolves lost in the playoffs to Memphis was because they were one of the youngest and least experienced teams, cracking in several fourth quarters. Tim Connelly used the off-season to reverse MIN’s youth-based system to focus on adding players in their prime, older than their core.

With only four total picks over the next five years, TC can't let Naz just walk next summer if he can get picks. It was a mistake to not try and get at least a distant second for Okogie.

Think about the depth chart if we do this. Say KAT gets the flu. Now KA starts at PF and Rudy at C. But Rudy sits 15 minutes a game and without Naz who plays C? You want Knight getting high leverage minutes? What if Rudy is in foul trouble. Or worse, Rudy is out and KAT is at C with foul trouble? You don’t sign a SF/PF to trade away your C depth. Maybe if Rivers is also on the way out and we sign Boogie. I agree 100% about JO and I think we might end up moving Spagnolo before he ever comes over to recover some picks. The better he does in Europe and next years summer league the more value those rights will have.
