I don't think it would surprise anyone if the Minnesota Timberwolves traded for a point guard at or before February's trade deadline. At 38, Mike Conley is declining, and 20-year-old Rob Dillingham hasn't proven that he can handle a sizable role. In the same breath, I don't think it would surprise anyone if the Dallas Mavericks traded D'Angelo Russell.
The 6-foot-3 point guard played for the Wolves from 2020 to 2023. Since Russell signed with the Mavericks in free agency this summer, he is eligible to be traded on December 15, just under a month from now.
