Timberwolves Trade Budinger, Summer League Rolls On

The Wolves officially announced the trade of Chase Budinger to the Pacers over the weekend, while the Lynx split a pair of games and summer league continues today.

The Timberwolves officially completed the trade sending Chase Budinger to the Pacers in exchange for Croatian forward Damjan Rudez. Rudez is coming off a rookie year in which he was a part of the Pacers rotation, averaging 15 minutes per game. His primary skill is shooting--he made 40% of his threes as a rookie. That's pretty much all he did, however, as nearly 2/3rds of his shot attempts were from beyond the arc, and his non-shooting stats were practically non-existent.
