Report: Jimmy Butler 'fed up' with Towns, won't sign extension

After a playoff berth in their first season together, Jimmy Butler and the Timberwolves seemed to be off to a good start and headed to a good future with Karl-Anthony Towns being so young. But, things do not look to bright as of now in Minnesota. According to Joe Crowley of the Chicago Sun-Times, Butler is not open to singing an extension with Minnesota.

“As for Butler, a league source said that he also has no intentions of signing an extension with Minnesota, all but fed up with the nonchalant attitude of his younger teammates, specifically Karl-Anthony Towns,”

Some tension had emerged recently with Towns and the franchise, but things seemed to cool down as of late.
