Shortly after the Minnesota Timberwolves won the NBA draft lottery to land the No. 1 pick in the 2020 NBA draft, trade speculation surrounding the pick ran rampant.
The Phoenix Suns, and Devin Booker, played a big part in that speculation, with some proposing trades sending Booker to Minnesota in exchange for that top draft selection (and others).
But could the Suns land the No. 1 pick from Minnesota and not have to give up Booker (which they are not going to do, no matter what the speculation says)?
Yes, they could, according to one NBA writer.
