After weeks and weeks of deliberation and numerous dramatic headlines, the Minnesota Timberwolves have pulled the trigger on a trade that sends Jimmy Butler to the Memphis Grizzlies‘ upcoming opponent.
By early-afternoon on Saturday, news broke that the Timberwolves have decided on a deal to rid themselves of Butler. Though they declined a recent trade offer of four first round Draft picks in exchange of the four-time offer, they have accepted a couple of solid role players plus a future pick.
Sources: Philadelphia's Jerryd Bayless has also been traded to Minnesota as part of Jimmy Butler deal.
