Why?!!! They'll buy-out Rubio I'd assume.

So you got D-Lo, just draft Edwards and now you want to trade a pick for Rubio lol.

Should've taken the best player in the draft Wiseman.

I think Ricky would make a wonderful sixth man.

This reminds me when the Wolves took a bunch of PG's in the draft. Wait, wasn't that Rubio and Flynn?

Fun.

You missed the part where they would get #5 and #28. Trade 8 spots but get Rubio AND 28th? Easy yes.
Surprised Sam the hoarder Presti would do this

There is no clear number 1 in this draft

Who is coming off the bench between Russell, Rubio and Edwards?

Lol yes. With back to back picks. Curry went right after. Doubled down and missed the gem.

I don't see it and I don't see how his team or agent would be ok going back to Minny. They still have the same ownership. You gotta be able to get a third team to flip him. Hopefully to the Clips

And they gave up a 1st for Beasley. And drafted Culver last year. And have Okogie. That's 6 notable guards with a gaping void at forward.

What about moving DLo to the 2? Run a lineup of Rubio, DLo, Edwards, ..., KAT

I think it's a good move by the Wolves.

Read on Twitter
