The Timberwolves aggressively pursued Durant in trade talks before the deadline and are expected to circle the wagon again this summer, but were unwilling to part with star guard Anthony Edwards and versatile forward Jaden McDaniels in discussions, league sources told HoopsHype.

Instead, Timberwolves forward Julius Randle and guard Donte DiVincenzo were discussed as part of trade talks for Durant, league sources told HoopsHype.


The Knicks package of Randle + DD + the Detroit pick (17th) may just get it done...ironically.

Wolves would instantly regain the contender status they lost by trading away KAT.

They could go for it all next season and let KD come off of their cap next summer.

Conley
Ant
McDaniels
KD
Gobert

Swapping Naz for Gobert is the "death" lineup.

The Wolves have the pieces to make a Durant deal work, and the Suns should look into considering them as one of the teams with the most to offer.

Minnesota would be willing to include Julius Randle as the main piece in terms of salaries and Dillingham is a great piece to build around for Phoenix, but the Suns would still need a little more to make a deal happen.

Let the record show, Fri Apr 4, 2025 5:52 am, plaintiff 3toheadmelo went into his usual Julius Randle stanning within the confines and sanctuary of Around the NBA thread by fishing with a twitter link related to one Julius Randle. Defendant NoDope is just sticking to the subject presented by one 3toheadmelo, the case should be thrown out, as we all know what Melo does.

Nope, that was 2 days ago my friend. I'm a changed man. We live in the present, not in the past.
Mods please take Nodope and Iron to take their usual Randle slander to their room in the ex Knicks thread.

I am willing to take a punishment, as long as Melo retroactively takes one for bringing up Randle on Fri Apr 4, 2025 5:52 am.

That trade gave the Lakers three wings who can shoot, create, drive it: Luka, LeBron and Reeves.

They just might make the finals.
I don't think they have the bigs to beat Boston, but they'll fix that in the offseason.

Knicks should trade them Mitch. Might as well get in on fixing the league for Silver/L.A.

A murderer isn't absolved from the crime because it happened in the past. You committed a RealGM crime, there's no statute of limitations on your transgressions. You're not willing to do the time, I however will take my punishment as long as you fall with me.

Have the Lakers lost one game on national TV this season? Seems like the league has a way of making them look great whenever everyone is watching them.

Mitch for Hachimura?

Hachimura is kind of a stretch 4 who can occasionally score inside. We don't have a guy like that off the bench. Achiuwa is more of an undersized 5

You're admitting that you're a repeat offender that committed a crime, that's because criminals have high recidivism rates. I am perfectly happy to pay for my crime, as long as you pay for yours with me.
