The Minnesota Timberwolves are setting themselves up for a bigger trade

On the surface, the Minnesota Timberwolves' decision to send Jeff Teague and Treveon Graham to Atlanta for Allen Crabbe is a little confusing.

The Hawks clearly got the best players in the deal, and the Wolves didn't really clear up much cap space for the present or future considering all of the players involved were on expiring contracts that added up to be pretty similar salaries.

However, Minnesota was able to open up a roster spot following the trade which could come in handy if they want to make a bigger move.
