The Timberwolves are known to be active in current trade discussions in advance of Thursday’s deadline, but it’s fair to assume that it would be difficult for them to pull something off, given the array of hard-to-move contracts on Minnesota’s books.
On Tuesday afternoon, however, Jake Fischer at SI.com’s The Crossover confirmed what always made sense but was hard to pin down exactly: the Wolves indeed have interest in guards Lou Williams and Tyreke Evans.
Both players will be unrestricted free agents this summer, so this would be a play for a rental that would immediately step in and contribute off the bench.
