Timberwolves owner Alex Rodriguez talks Rudy Gobert trade, potentially going into luxury tax

LAS VEGAS – Timberwolves co-owner Alex Rodriguez used a familiar metaphor when a reporter asked him to describe his reaction to the Wolves trading for Rudy Gobert nearly two weeks ago.

"We're in a good position and just being opportunistic," Rodriguez said. "We do have a window for four or five years, and we're taking a swing at it."

That's what the former baseball star said Wednesday as he sat court-side Wednesday to take took in the Wolves' Summer League loss to Milwaukee after he represented the Wolves at the league's Board of Governors meeting in Las Vegas.
