As we have been without Minnesota Timberwolves basketball for the past month and a half, Wolves twitter has grown antsy enough for there to be mock trades of Damian Lillard or both Donovan Mitchell and Rudy Gobert to the Wolves. While the offseason may never have brought superstar trades, we knew when the Wolves lost in six to the Grizzlies that this was going to be a pivotal offseason.
Then, the “desperate” Wolves stole Tim Connely from the Nuggets, KAT made Third Team All-NBA and became eligible for a four-year, $211 million dollar extension, and rumors came out that D’Angelo Russell was being shopped.
