Wolves' biggest roster hole is impossible to fix without creating a new headache

The Minnesota Timberwolves are expected to be buyers at the trade deadline. It's easy to see why they've made back-to-back conference finals runs, yet are still a notch below the top teams in the West. Point guard remains the most discussed need, and likely the one Minnesota will heavily pursue.

Even if they trade for a PG, though, the Wolves will still likely have some sort of problem on their hands. The reward could end up outweighing the risk. However, I think it's important to acknowledge that making a trade is more challenging than it seems at face value.
