Gambo reporting the following 2 team trade might be in the works:
Suns receive: Ricky Rubio, Pekovic, #5
Wolves receive: Eric Bledsoe, PJ Tucker

Gambo says just speculation, but he is hearing rumblings about this trade.

Minny radio host is the source

Or we go big at 4 and 5 and hope Brown drops to 13 or grab Murray? Lots of scenarios here.

So down for for the MIN trade. Rubio is a stud defender. Will help with ball movement too.

A ton of rumors out there....

That trade with Minnesota would be an absolute change for the roster. Bledsoe and Tucker are with the team three and four years respectively.

That Minny trade would seriously help us overhaul this roster with an influx of young talent.

Agreed. Have always liked Rubio. First true pg since Nash.

Get it done, McD. I'm too intrigued to see it fall through.

Brown Booker and Bender....Len! They'd take a beating......tank for 2017. A lot of talent potential though

Fran Fraschilla doesn't have Luwawu as top-5 international and he'll probably go 2nd behind Bender.

I like Rubio. Pure PG, great defender and team player. High basketball IQ and positive presence in the locker room. Minnesota fans love him. Not a good shooter but he brings a ton of things to the table.

I prefer Blesoe over Rubio...but Tucker for #5/Pekovic is an steal, so I think the trade is fair enough for both teams.

We will see if it's true in the next few minutes.
